Abstract:
The CLS femoral prosthesis is a titanium stem designed as a 3-dimensional taper for press-fit implantation. The distal part of the prosthesis is intentionally made small so that it will not fill the intramedullary canal in the proximal diaphysis. The surface is bead blasted and has no bone ingrowth surface. Ribs in the proximal part of the prosthesis are designed to minimize rotational migration. The CLS acetabular component is a 6-sided expanding cup intended for implant with press-fit stabilization. This article emphasizes indications for use of the CLS, and it includes a brief report on clinical and radiographical results. Data from a review of the first 300 CLS stems implanted from 1983 to 1985 with an 82-month average follow-up suggested that neither bone ingrowth nor distal fit and fill are necessary for stable secondary fixation of an uncemented stem.

Homogeneity dictates that if an input x(t) is multiplied by a constant c, the output y(t) is multiplied by the same constant. Mathematically, this is expressed as:

The input-output behavior of an LTI system can be fully defined by its response to an impulsive excitation at its input. Once this impulse response is known, the system's reaction to any other input can be calculated...
