The Malta Hip

Inspired by the ankle joint, the MaltaHip is a revolutionary total hip replacement designed to mimic natural joint motion while improving longevity and reducing wear. Its unique 4-part design allows movement in three directions, enhancing range of motion and significantly lowering dislocation risk. 

Developed with proven biomaterials and tested in accredited laboratories, MaltaHip demonstrates exceptional wear resistance—offering a longer-lasting solution compared to conventional implants. This breakthrough aims to transform outcomes for patients and healthcare providers alike.
