21 CFR 888.3530 — Prosthesis, Knee, Femorotibial, Semi-Constrained, Cemented, Metal/Polymer

Orthopedic (OR) · Part 888 Subpart D—Prosthetic Devices · § 888.3530

Identification

A knee joint femorotibial metal/polymer semi-constrained cemented prosthesis is a device intended to be implanted to replace part of 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 consist of a femoral component made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum, and a tibial component made of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene and is limited to those prostheses intended for use with bone cement (§ 888.3027).
