Indications, Precautions & Contraindications<br />

Indications<br />

The <strong>Tactys</strong> prosthesis is intended for<br />

use in hand proximal interphalangeal<br />

joint arthroplasty associated with<br />

osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis,<br />

trauma (fracture) and revision surgery.<br />

Concept<br />

The innovative four-part prosthesis<br />

simulates the physiological movement<br />

of the joint while limiting bone<br />

resection. The design is modular to<br />

suit different morphologies and to<br />

enable intraoperative tensioning of<br />

the joint.<br />

and have not been tested for heating<br />

or migration in the MR environment,<br />

labeling or respective operative<br />

technique. Detailed information is<br />

included in the instructions for use<br />

being attached to every implant.<br />
