•
Cut Guide Stability
Two oblique pins are required for proper stability of the
4-in-1 Cut Guide. A well fixed and stable Cut Guide will
help ensure precise bone cuts for proper femoral fit.
Follow the order of femoral cuts as described in the
technique. Strict adherence to the cut order will help
ensure the Cut Guide is stable for all four cuts.
•
Femoral Trial/Implant Insertion
Apply upward force on the inserter while impacting
the femoral provisional and/or implant. This will assist
in achieving the proper orientation of the femoral
component on the bone.
Due to the press-fit nature of a porous component,
more force may be required to insert a porous femoral
component than a cemented component.
•
Femoral Trial/Implant Fit
A fully seated femoral provisional and/or implant
should have no gaps anteriorly, posteriorly, and distally.
Gaps in the anterior and posterior chamfer areas are to
be expected and can be filled with bone grafting,
if desired.
The Trabecular Metal material is approximately
0.5mm proud of the implant rails and has a darkened
appearance. If no light appears between the distal
bone face and the femoral implant, the implant is
properly seated.
Bone cement is recommended in cases in which
the implant fit has been compromised in any way.
A compromised fit could be encountered due to
femoral re-cuts, component extraction and re-insertion,
or unplanned voids in the bone. Trabecular Metal
Femoral Components are indicated for use with bone
cement if desired.
