Functional description
A CoCrMo fixed bearing femoral component designed to replace the femoral condyles during bicondylar replacement of the knee joint. The device can be combined with all sizes of CR, UCR, DD, RP and UC gliding surfaces. Cement pockets with a depth of 1mm are provided on the cementing surface to guarantee a minimum thickness of the cement mantle. Two fixation pegs are provided on the distal base surface of the CR femur for medio-lateral stabilisation of the prosthesis in the bone.
