Intended purpose
The LINK Endo-Model EVO Knee System is a non-active, surgically-invasive, implantable device which is intended for long-term replacement of a diseased and/ or defective knee joint in the human body. It can be used with full-grown, anesthetized patients of any ethnic origin and sex. The LINK Endo-Model EVO Knee System is implanted with or without cement related to the selected implant version. The femoral component is generally indicated for use in mobility limiting diseases, fractures or defects of the knee joint, distal femur or proximal tibia which cannot be treated by conservative or osteosynthetic procedures. These include primary and secondary osteoarthritis; rheumatoid arthritis; revision after primary or revision total knee replacement, bone necrosis, varus and valgus deformity with contracture or laxity of the medial or lateral stabilizers; extreme cases of varus/valgus deformities or muscular deficiency; oncological and revision surgery in lower limb (in conjunction with the Endo-Model W/ Endo-Model EVO-W and the Megasystem-C).
Functional description
The Total Condylar Replacement Femoral Component is manufactured from CoCrMo alloy. Three (3) sizes are available for the left and right side, in widths ranging from 60 mm to 75 mm. Femoral components have a modular taper connection for connection with modular stems. Hinge Knee Prosthesis is linked by an axis mechanism. The femoral and tibial components are linked by the special anti-luxation device of the plateau without reducing the motional and rotational sequences
