Description
The Unicompartmental Knee Resurfacing Prosthesis (UniCAP®) incorporates a low-profile femoral articular component that mates to a taper post via a taper interlock. The femoral component articulates against an all-polyethylene tibial component. The UniCAP® implants allow resurfacing of the compartment utilizing the undisturbed compartmental structures and soft-tissues.
Materials
Articular Component: Cobalt-Chronium Alloy (Co-Cr-Mo)
Surface Coating: Titanium (CPTi)
Taper Post: Titanium Alloy (Ti-6Al-4V)
Tibial Component: Ultra-High-Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE)
Indications
Partial replacement of the articulating surfaces of the knee when only one side of the joint is affected due to the compartmental primary degenerative or post-traumatic degenerative disease, previous tibial condyle or plateau fractures, deformity or revision of previous arthroplasty. This device is intended to be used with bone cement.
Contraindications:
Absolute contraindications include:
1) Infection, sepsis, or osteomyelitis
2) Patients that have a known sensitivity to materials typically used in orthopedic prosthetic
devices or bone cements
Relative contraindications include:
1) Uncooperative patient or patient incapable of following pre-operative and
post-operative instructions
2) Osteoporosis
3) Metabolic disorders which may impair the formation or healing of bone
4) Infections at remote sites which may spread to the implant site
5) Rapid joint destruction or bone resorption visible on roentgenogram
6) Chronic instability or deficient soft tissues and other support structures
7) Vascular or muscular insufficiency
8) Inadequate skin, musculotendinus or neurovascular system status
