System Overview

  • A deeper, more lateralized trochlear groove improves patellar contact and tracking
  • An externally rotated femoral implant design optimizes femorotibial rotational alignment and reduces the likelihood of notching the lateral anterior cortex.
  • Anatomically-shaped tibial baseplates have an improved fin design and significantly improve coverage of the tibia as compared to symmetrical designs.
  • Versatile, simple instrumentation, comprehensive in function and fewer in number, reduces surgical time, makes intraoperative management easier, and provides a more precise fit.
  • Thoughtful versatility reduces the number of implant components yet significantly expands your clinical options.
  • Wear is reduced by improving contact area and reducing contact stress in all articular surfaces.
  • All articular surfaces are polished, including the proximal tibia. A nondegrading form of sterilization is used on all polyethylene.
