Amendments
7/10/2014  Since the publication of the document ‘Prostheses used in hip, knee, ankle, elbow and shoulder replacements 2013’ on 12 September 2014, a correction has been made to the bone cement product tables 20 (a), (b) and (e) on pages 79, 80 and 82 respectively. This acknowlegement seeks to clarify that Palacos bone cement is wholly owned by Heraeus Medical. Any references to Biomet Palacos have been removed and were originally included due to a data processing error.
