A thorough pre-operative planning is a prerequisite for the success of THA (Total Hip Arthroplasty) in all patients, and especially among those with secondary osteoarthrosis due to the inherent abnormal geometry in the hip joint. Pre-operative planning in THA is a perfectly integrated part of the concept for the Unique® custom femoral stem. Achieving the correct position and size of the intramedullary stem as well as equalizing the leg-length, optimizing the medial femoral head offset and to correct the anteversion is crucial in terms of implant longevity and function. The main features of the pre-operative planning are:     • Optimized position of the resection level to preserve proximal bone stock     • The stem is designed to obtain a close fit to endocortical bone proximally to optimize rotational stability, load        transfer and to provide a secure implantation.     • The extra-medullar part of the implant can be optimized with respect to leg-length correction; optimized medial        femoral head offset and normalized anteversion. By means of SCP’s web application, the uniqueNET; it is possible for the surgeon to make his own pre- operative planning for each individually designed Unique stem, so called approval of design. The system provides the surgeon, on the basis of accepted and documented biomechanical and functional principles, to optimize the leg-length and medial femoral head offset for the Unique stem as well as size and position of the new centre of rotation for the acetabular component. uniqueNET The internet-application is a versatile tool for purchase of new stems in addition to easy and precise pre-operative planning for each Unique stem. The uniqueNET provides the surgeon with:     • Easy purchase of Unique custom femoral stem     • Easy to use tool for precise pre-operative planning     • Overview of previous orders of the Unique stems     • Easy access to patient data and documentation Main page By logging on to the uniqueNET, the surgeon is presented to a list of orders for approval and neck planning. Pre-operative planning The planning is easily carried out by adjusting: • cup position, size and inclination • femur with prosthesis with leg length and medial offset 3D model A downloadable 3D model of the femur and custom prosthesis is available for more thorough evaluation. Purchase A custom prosthesis may easily be purchased on uniqueNET by filling out and submitting form with clinical data. Access to uniqueNET When you visit SCP's website, click the <log in> button and enter your "username" and "password" in the login-window to access the main page for uniqueNET. 1.To order a new Unique custom stem, please select <order NEW custom prosthesis>     • Please fill in the patient information in the order form and click the <Submit> button 2. To perform approval of design select <view ALL orders>     • Select the category "Orders for draft approval" and select the concrete order/patient.     • First Step – Check contours. Overview of the CT-pictures from each level of the femur with 5 mm increment.       The outline of the femoral stem is also shown for each CT-picture.     • Second Step – Plan neck. Select the appropriate size and position of the acetabular component. Complete the neck       planning by selecting the appropriate medial femoral head offset and leg-length correction     • Third Step – Confirm approval. Please verify the implant design Verification of implant design initiates the manufacturing of the Unique stem For more information about uniqueNET please contact SCP or download our quick reference manual. SCP is also pleased to give you a demonstration of the "power" of the uniqueNET. Click on the "Log in demo" banner below and you will find a selection of 5 cases with deformities in the hip joint where Unique custom femoral stem have been used.
