Eligibility Criteria
adult patients
You may qualify if:
- Patients requiring primary TKA because of severe knee joint conditions that cannot be treated through other therapies;
- degenerative osteoarthritis;
- rheumatoid arthritis;
- posttraumatic arthritis;
- symptomatic knee instability;
- knee stiffness or deformation of the knee joint;
- Age ≥ 18 years;
- Patient signed informed consent
You may not qualify if:
- Age younger than 18 years
- Any prior joint replacement at the index knee
- Unable or unwilling to return for postoperative follow-up
- Patient did not sign informed consent
- Joint conditions that can be treated by reconstructive surgery (e.g. osteotomy)
- Acute or chronic infections near the joint, or systemic infections
- Secondary diseases that could influence joint implant functionality
- Systemic diseases and metabolic disorders
- Severe osteoporosis or osteomalacia
- Severely damaged bone structures that could prevent stable implantation of implant components
- Bone tumors in the region of implant fixation
- Bone malformations, axial misalignments or other bone conditions that rule out implantation of a prosthetic joint
- Expected overload on the joint implant, especially due to high patient weight or intense physical strain and activity
- Dependency on pharmaceutical drugs, drug abuse, or alcoholism
- Fever, infection or inflammation (systemic or local)
