Trabecular Metal Knee System Augments are intended for use where severe degeneration, trauma, or other pathology of the knee joint indicates total knee arthroplasty. When used with the NexGen Complete Knee Solution - Rotating Hinge Knee (RHK) System, the Trabecular Metal Augments are for cemented use only. When used with the NexGen Complete Knee Solution - Legacy Constrained Condylar Knee System, the Trabecular Metal Augments are for cementless or cemented use.

The Trabecular Metal Knee System Augments are manufactured to be compatible for use with Zimmer's NexGen Complete Knee Solution - Rotating Hinge Knee (RHK) System and Zimmer's NexGen Complete Knee Solution - Legacy Knee Constrained Condylar Knee (LCCK) System. When used with the RHK System, the Trabecular Metal Augments are for cemented use only. When used with the LCCK System, the Trabecular Metal Augments are for either cementless or cemented use.

The Trabecular Metal Reconstruction System is indicated for use in reinforcing weak and/or deficient bony tissues in orthopaedic surgical procedures such as pelvic reconstruction, acetabular reconstruction, cement restriction, and in long bone procedures such as femoral and humeral reconstruction. When used in long bone procedures, ancillary fixation, such as plates and screws, must be used. The Trabecular Metal Reconstruction System may also be used with bone graft

The Trabecular Metal Reconstructive System is manufactured wholly of Trabecular Metal porous tantalum, the same material that comprises numerous medical devices intended for use in orthopedic applications. Trabecular Metal porous tantalum is 80% porous with fully interconnecting pores that are about 0.5mm in diameter. The components of this line extension are wedge-shaped components, similar to the cleared wedge-shapes (K032344). The smallest size wedge is 19mm height with a 5° angle and the largest size wedge is 28mm height with a 30° angle. The angles run in increments of 5 degrees and there are 6 heights for each range of angles. One 'arm' is longer than the other, with the shorter 'arm' contoured along its length and slightly wider than the longer 'arm'. The base of the wedge is contoured. The relief allows biological fixation to occur along both the outer and inner segments of the device.

The NexGen Trabecular Metal Tibial Cone Augments are indicated for use in the reconstruction of bony defects in knee reconstruction due to severe degeneration, trauma, or other pathology of the knee joint, and in the revision or salvage of failed, previously reconstructed knee procedures and implants. The Trabecular Metal Tibial Cone Augments are for cemented use only in the USA, and for cementless or cemented use outside the USA.

The NexGen Trabecular Metal Tibial Cone Augments are designed to be used in conjunction with Zimmer Inc.'s Legacy@ Stemmed Tibial Bases (LCCK) and Rotating Hinge Knee (RHK) tibial components. The subject devices are used to address proximal tibial cavitary defects encountered when implanting either of these two systems. The augments are manufactured from Trabecular Metal and have tapered posterior, medial and lateral walls. The periphery of the inferior surface is smaller than that of the superior surface. The augments are hollow such that they are to be filled with bone cement, and allow for placement of the stem and/or keel of the associated tibial base plate. Fixation of the augment to the tibial baseplate is accomplished by using bone cement. The inferior surface of the LCCK and RHK tibial baseplates must be cemented to bone. The Trabecular Metal Tibial Cone Augments are for cemented use along the bone in the USA, and for cementless or cemented use along the bone outside the USA.

The Hedrocel Trabecular Metal Reconstruction System is indicated for use in reinforcing weak and/or deficient bony tissues in orthopaedic surgical procedures such as pelvic reconstruction, acetabular reconstruction, cement restriction, and in long bone procedures such as femoral and humeral reconstruction. When used in long bone procedures, ancillary fixation, such as plates and screws, must be used. The Hedrocel Trabecular Metal Reconstruction System may also be used with bone graft.

The Hedrocel Trabecular Metal Device Reconstruction System is manufactured wholly of Hedrocel porous tantalum. Hedrocel porous tantalum is 80% porous with fully interconnecting pores that are about 0.5mm in diameter. This line extension adds new components to the Hedrocel Trabecular Metal Reconstruction System.

Hedrocel® Vertebral Body Replacement System is a vertebral body replacement device intended for use in the thoracolumbar spine (T1 - L5) to replace a collapsed, damaged or unstable vertebral body due to tumor or trauma (i.e., fracture). The Hedrocel® Vertebral Body Replacement is intended for use with supplemental internal spinal fixation systems. The Hedrocel® Vertebral Body Replacement may be used with bone graft.

The Hedrocel® Vertebral Body Replacement System is designed to be used as a replacement for a single diseased or damaged vertebral body and the adjacent disc when spinal surgery through an anterior approach is indicated. The Hedrocel® Vertebral Body Replacement (VBR) System is comprised wholly of Hedrocel® Porous Tantalum (tantalum deposited on a vitreous carbon skeleton).

The Hedrocel Trabecular Metal Reconstructive System is manufactured wholly of Hedrocel porous tantalum, the same material that comprises numerous medical devices intended for use in orthopedic applications. Hedrocel porous tantalum is 80% porous with fully interconnecting pores that are about 0.5mm in diameter. The devices in this line extension are wedge shaped and contoured so as to fit a variety of anatomical bone structures. The devices are available in small, medium and large sizes, with the cross-sectional dimensions being 0.52in x 0.88in for the small size; 0.58in x 0.96in for the medium size, and 0.62in x 1.06in for the large size. Each size consists of varying heights ranging from 2mm - 8mm in 2mm increments. There is a consistent inclination angle of 10 degrees along the length in all size ranges. A secondary inclination angle along the width ranges from 20-35 degrees in 5-degree increments. The resultant geometry is a bi-plane wedge. The devices have a 6mm central hole for optional bone graft placement. A tapered slot is provided for implantation instrumentation.

Prosthetic replacement with this device may be indicated for the treatment of severe pain or significant disability in degenerative, rheumatoid, or traumatic disease of the glenohumeral joint; un-united humeral head fractures of long duration; irreducible 3- and 4-part proximal humeral fractures; avascular necrosis of the humeral head; or other difficult clinical management problems where arthrodesis or resectional arthroplasty is not acceptable. The assembled humeral component may be used alone for hemiarthroplasty or combined with the glenoid component for total shoulder arthroplasty. Humeral heads with heights greater than 27 mm may be used for difficult clinical management problems involving rotator cuff deficiency where arthrodesis or conventional non-constrained arthroplasty is not acceptable. The Trabecular Metal Glenoid must be fully or partially cemented in place in the USA.

The device is a monoblock glenoid component comprised of a Trabecular Metal base with an articular surface comprised of direct compression molded polyethylene. This device was cleared in K022377. The TM Glenoid is designed to interface & articulate with Zimmer B/F humeral components and is available in one thickness option of 5 mm, and the same outer profile options as the B/F allpolyethylene glenoid.
