Intended purpose
A cementless femoral component of the ACS knee system for use in knee arthroplasty. Knee arthroplasty with the ACS Knee System is indicated, if - severe joint destruction with significant impairment where other therapeutic measures are not more promising. - severe joint pain due to degenerative or rheumatoid arthritis, joint fractures or bone necrosis. - post-operative conditions after previous surgery with or without the use of implants.
Functional description
CoCrMo alloy with TiN/porous coating. Asymmetric anatomically formed design. The lateral femoral flange is more prominent than the medial one with anteriorly smooth tapered flange. The deep 5° inclined patella groove supports patella alignment and physiological patella tracking. The distal resection plane is inclined by 15° which contributes to maximum preservation of bone stock. The articulating surfaces feature a multi-radius design (J-curve profile). 2 femoral pegs for improved bone fixation.
