Functional description

The balanSys vitamys PS Inlay features a unique cup model design. Manufactured with a high frequency machining process the vitamys inlay offers an extraordinary smooth articular surface resulting in a lower potential for polyethylene wear and delamination. The inlay is securely fixed with the 4 point fixation system of the tibia plateau. The strong interface restricts any movement of the two implants completely and virtually eliminates backside wear of the vitamys inlay.
