Intended purpose
LCS Complete VVC Revision Insert is the articulating component of a total knee arthroplasty and is intended to provide increased patient mobility and reduced pain by replacing the damaged knee joint articulation in patients with osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis and for revision of failed knee prostheses. Also indicated for use in knees whose anterior and posterior cruciate ligaments are absent or are in such condition as to justify their sacrifice.
Functional description
The LCS Complete VVC Revision Insert articulates with the LCS Complete VVC femoral component and rotates on the surface tibial tray of a knee joint prosthesis. It is a one-piece contoured polyethylene insert with a posterior stablising post reinforced with a titanium alloy pin.
