Cemented Implantation Option
TECHNIQUE TIP
7.B
Prior to cementing implants remove provisionals and use pulse lavage
to remove unwanted debris from the resected bone surfaces
and the joint space.
•
Cement may be used to fix the Persona Trabecular Metal
Femoral Component. After the implants have been chosen,
make a final check to ensure that all components are
compatible. If the resected surfaces of the femur is sclerotic,
drill multiple holes with a small drill (2.0mm-3.2mm) to
improve cement intrusion. The cement should have a doughy
consistency when ready for use.
•
With the knee in 70°-90° of flexion, retract the soft
tissue in the desired manner. Place a layer of cement on
the underside of the prosthesis and in the holes drilled
in the femur. Attach the Femoral Inserter/Extractor to the
femoral component
(Fig. 43a & 43b)
. Insert the femoral
component onto the distal femur by translating the
component laterally until the lateral peg aligns with the
drill hole in the lateral femoral condyle. Take care to avoid
scratching the implant component surfaces. After the
femoral component is placed on the femur and the inserter/
extractor is removed, the impaction head/inserter assembly
can be used to implant the component onto the femur.
If this inserter/extractor method is used, the inserter handle
must be in the closed and locked position. Ensure that soft
tissue is not trapped beneath the implant. Alternatively,
assemble the Quick Connect Handle to the Femoral Impactor
Head
(Fig. 44)
. Use this assembly to fully seat the femoral
implant
(Fig. 45)
. Remove retractors, and check the medial
and lateral sides to make sure the femoral implant is fully
impacted distally. Remove any excess cement in a thorough
and consistent manner.
