Sulzer OrthopedicsJoint & Fracture Care
GSB III® Elbow SystemA nonconstrained design with 21 years of clinical results.
Anatomical design promotes lasting stability.
For more than twenty years, the GSB III Elbow Prosthesis from SulzerOrthopedics has provided a proven,well-designed solution for elbow reconstruction. With an anatomicallyshaped humeral component and a low-friction, nonconstrained connectionbetween the humeral stem and theulna component, the GSB III Elbowprovides flexibility, stability, superiorrange of motion, and lasting performance.
Large surface support.
Large surface support on humeralcondyles and wide anatomically shapedmedullary stem transfer rotationalstress, preventing extreme loading.
GSB III Elbow SystemOver two decades of outstanding results.
GSB
Encapsulated polyethylene bushings in hinge casings guaranteethe low friction principle.
Oval, loose-link connection betweenthe ulna and humerusallows an angle offive degrees for rotational movement.
180-degree ROM withpermitted 10 degreesof overextension.

The ten-year survival rate is 94.5%.
A population of 210 GSB III Elbowpatients was mainly comprised ofwomen, mostly rheumatoid arthritispatients. After follow-up for 16 years,only two post-traumatic cases requiredrevision for aseptic loosening.
