Functional description
The Columbus CR DD gliding surface is used in combination with the Columbus CR femoral component and the Columbus CR/PS or CRA/PSA tibial plateau. The gliding surface is intended to use in patients with stable ligamentary apparatus, including an intact posterior cruciate ligament. The Columbus CR DD gliding surface corresponds to the selected tibial plateau size. The PCL-retaining design, fixed gliding surface is characterized by a deep concavity in the sagittal plane. Made from UHMWPE.
