Latest Polymotion Hip Resurfacing at Rush University Medical Center

Dr. Della Valle, a highly respected orthopaedic surgeon and Professor of Orthopaedic Surgery at Rush University Medical Center, has performed more than 11,000 hip and knee replacements and continues to play a leading role in advancing hip resurfacing techniques and research. 

The Polymotion® Hip Resurfacing System, developed by JointMedica is an investigational device designed for active patients seeking bone-conserving alternatives to traditional hip replacement. Unlike contemporary metal-on-metal technologies, the Polymotion® system combines a Vitamin E-infused polyethylene cup with a titanium-coated shell and a metal femoral cap — avoiding metal-on-metal articulation while maintaining excellent range of motion and implant stability.

The procedure was observed by Russell Walter, Senior Director of Sales and Marketing at JointMedica, who commented: “It’s incredibly encouraging to see the continued clinical progress with Polymotion in the hands of experienced surgeons like Dr. Della Valle. Each case brings us closer to expanding access to a modern, bone-preserving solution for patients who want to stay active.”

This latest surgery underscores the growing momentum behind next-generation hip resurfacing technologies, as collaboration between leading surgeons and industry innovators continues to shape the future of joint preservation.
