| Item | Genesis I Total Knee System |
| Features | 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.
Dedicated cruciate retaining, posterior stabilized, low demand, and revision systems have been designed to meet the individual needs of each clinical and economic situation. |
| Description | The Genesis Total Knee System provides the adaptability surgeons need to make each implant fit each patient. Not the other way around. The wide selection of stems, wedges, modules, articular inserts and patellar components allow surgeons to address the unexpected - with certainty. And you do it all with one instrument set. For cruciate retention. Or posterior stabilization. For primary knee arthroplasty. Or revision procedures.
This system is intended for cemented use only. |
