INTENDED PURPOSE:

GKS PRIME FLEX PS is a three-compartimental posterior stabilized knee prosthesis to be used in Total Knee Replacement procedures. Indicated for primary Total Knee Arthroplasties in cases of advanced osteo-cartilagineous degeneration of the knee joint mainly due to arthrosis, rheumatoid arthritis, posttraumatic factors, and outcomes of corrective osteotomies. Anchorage of the device to the bone may be cementless or cemented, depending upon the selected version.


STERILIZATION:

            Method: Ethylene Oxyde (EtO) or irradiation (Beta/Gamma rays - minimum dose 25 kGy) or Vaporized Hydrogen Peroxide (VH2O2).

FEMORAL COMPONENT


10 Femoral sizes


Manufactured in Cobalt-Chrome alloy, available in both MICROLOY® BIOLOY® ultrahard finishing and surface versions.







The femoral component is designed to spare bone thanks to the reduced thickness and size increments (2mm) in addition to the minimal dimension of the intercodylar box (open bottom) and the absence of femoral pegs .

Special attention has been given in the posterior stabilizing mechanism design, in order to allow a "soft" contact and reduce the solicitations between the Post of the joint liner and the Cam of the femoral component.




Joint Liner



9 Thiknesses

Manufactured with Ultra high molecular weight polyethylene is also available in VITAL-E® version (UHMW polyethylene added with antioxidant Vitamin E).

It is designed to allow a wide Femur/Tibia pairing guaranteeing for each femoral size the coupling with 6 tibial sizes.

Each size of insert fit with 2 sizes of Tibial Plate and is available in 9 thicknesses

Colour coding for correct coupling of the liner with Femoral and Tibial components.
