Latest Polymotion Hip Resurfacing at Rush University Medical Center

Earlier this week, Dr Craig Della Valle performed his latest Polymotion Hip Resurfacing procedure at Rush University Medical Center in Chicago.

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
