Intended Use
The Howmedica® Total Stabilizer Knee Components (Stabilizer femoral component, stabilizer tibial insert, modular offset adaptor, femoral/tibial stem extenders and tibial wedges) are intended to be used along with previously released Duracon® tibial and patellar components as a total knee system in primary or revision cemented total knee arthroplasty. This total knee system is intended to be used to relieve pain and instability of the knee joint as a result of non-inflammatory joint disease, inflammatory joint disease, trauma, or failed previous prosthesis. The Howmedica® Total Stabilizer femoral component and tibial insert components are specifically intended to be used when the cruciate ligaments are absent, inadequate, or cannot be preserved during the operative procedure, especially when anterior-posterior stability is impaired due to the absence of the posterior cruciate ligament and/or patella. The collateral ligaments may or may not be intact. In addition, these components may be used in revision of a failed previous prosthesis where the cruciate ligaments are absent. The Howmedica® tibial wedges are intended to be used with the Howmedica® Universal tibial baseplate to augment bone loss on the surface of the tibia. Tibial bone loss may be observed in primary or revision total knee arthroplasty. The Howmedica® Modular Offset Adaptor is intended to be used in situations where a stem extender is being used, and the tibial baseplate or femoral component requires offsetting with respect to the intramedullary canal to allow optimal coverage of the prepared bone surfaces. The Howmedica® Stem Extenders are intended to be used with Duracon®/ Kinemax® femoral/tibial components in primary/revision total knee arthroplasty where additional stability is required. The Howmedica® Total Stabilizer Knee Components are intended to be implanted using bone cement.

§ 888.3560 Knee joint patellofemorotibial polymer/metal/polymer semi-constrained cemented prosthesis.

(a)
Identification. A knee joint patellofemorotibial polymer/metal/polymer semi-constrained cemented prosthesis is a device intended to be implanted to replace a knee joint. The device limits translation and rotation in one or more planes via the geometry of its articulating surfaces. It has no linkage across-the-joint. This generic type of device includes prostheses that have a femoral component made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum, and a tibial component or components and a retropatellar resurfacing component made of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene. This generic type of device is limited to those prostheses intended for use with bone cement (§ 888.3027).(b)
Classification. Class II.
