PALACOS® MV+G – Medium-Viscosity Bone Cement with Gentamicin
medium-viscosity bone cement
radiopaque
containing the antibiotic gentamicin
colored green (colorant E141)
Proven Quality with a Longer Working Time
Compared to the high-viscosity PALACOS® bone cements, PALACOS® MV+G hardens slightly slower1 and is also easier to mix as it has a lower initial viscosity.2 PALACOS® MV+G further contains the aminoglycoside antibiotic gentamicin to protect the cured bone cement and contiguous tissue against colonization by bacteria that are sensitive to gentamicin.
PALACOS® MV+G is indicated for use in the second stage of a two-stage revision for total joint arthroplasty after the initial infection has been cleared.
