Knee Implants And Technologies

Knee replacement implants and technologies for your unique anatomy

 

 

Knee Replacement Approaches

 

 

A total knee replacement is considered when the surfaces of the thighbone, shinbone and underside of the kneecap are significantly damaged. During total knee replacement surgery, the surface of the thighbone and shinbone are replaced and an implant that acts as cushioning is inserted between the two bones. The undersurface of the kneecap may also be replaced if needed.

In some cases, knee pain (osteoarthritis or OA) only occurs in one side of the knee. For knees that are otherwise healthy, partial knee replacement can preserve the portions of your knee, cartilage (cushioning) and ligaments (bands connecting bones) that are healthy, instead of replacing the whole knee. Zimmer Biomet has two world-class partial knee implants.

In situations where precision, personalization and minimally invasive approaches are particularly beneficial, your surgeon may recommend robotic-assisted knee replacement surgery like the ROSA® Robot. This Robotic Surgical Assistant is designed to help your specially-trained surgeon tailor the placement of your knee implant. Your surgeon is in the operating room the entire time and is making all the decisions throughout your knee surgery.

If your knees ache, you're not alone. A lot of Americans suffer from knee pain due to osteoarthritis or OA.

Injectable knee pain treatment is a non-surgical therapy that addresses the pain caused by the OA in the knee joint and can provide significant knee pain relief for up to 6 months.
