It is usedto replace the symptomatic joint between the first metacarpal and the trapezium.Interpositional arthroplasty offers pain relief and has the benefit ofmaintaining range of motion and a firm foundation for grip and pinchstrength. The modular design of the BioPro implant minimizes the frequentlyoccurring complications that have hindered other arthroplasties such asdislocation, material failure and invasive soft tissue reconstructions.The medial offset head and varus angle of the implant avoid dislocation,plus modularity allows for reproduction of soft tissue tension. Theimplant is manufactured from cobalt chrome, which has been proven tohave excellent biocompatibility. Additionally, the minimally invasiveoperation does not require any soft tissue releases and/or sling proceduresto maintain functionality. The BioPro Modular Thumb Implant also offerssimple instrumentation, allowing for easily reproducible results.BioProTel: 800-252-7707www.bioproimplants.comAAOS Booth 2733Enquiry No 8060 Orthopaedic Product News • January/February 2007
PRODUCT FEATURESZimmer ® NexGen ® GenderSolutions NexGen ® Female CR-Flex/LPS-Flex Femoral KneeComponentsThe NexGen Gender SolutionsHigh-Flex femoral knee componentswere developed to addressthe specific shape differences thatare typical of female femoralanatomy. Scientific research clearlyindicates that there are differencesbetween the typical female and male femoral anatomies. Until now,the orthopaedic industry has provided femoral components that are basedon an average of female and male femoral anatomy. The NexGen GenderSolutions High-Flex femoral components were designed to match the specificM/L-A/P aspect ratio typical of the female anatomy. This is an importantadvancement for the treatment of the under-served female total kneearthroplasty (TKA) patient population which accounts for nearly twothirdsof the TKA population.These implants are designed to accommodate safe high flexion, up to155°, for the lifestyle needs of the global patient population. The GenderSolutions High-Flex Knee is based on the clinical success of our NexGenHigh-Flex Knees and Zimmer’s 30-plus years of clinical excellence in totalknee replacement.The Gender Solutions High-Flex femoral knee components are availablein Posterior Stabilized (PS) and Cruciate Retaining (CR) versions.PROfx ® hana TM TableThe explosive growth of the Anterior Approach to total hip arthroplasty led toa strong need for a new table that serves two of the fastest growing orthopaedicprocedures today: the single incision Anterior Approach to Hip Arthroplastyand small incision Total Knee Arthroplasty.That new table is hana (Hip and Knee Arthroplasty), which now offersspecific features of the PROfx ® in a compact, technologically superior tabledesign. Since its introduction, the hana table system has also become the platformof choice for Hip Arthroscopy and the resurgence of Hip Resurfacing.With its unique capability to position the leg, hana enables the surgeon toreplace the hip through a single incision, Anterior Approach without detachmentof the muscle from the pelvis or femur. The Table allows hyperextension,abduction, adduction and external rotation of the hip for femoral componentplacement – a positioning option not possible with conventional tables.OSI Table systems are the largest instruments in the OR, Designed byOrthopaedic Surgeons for Hip and Knee Orthopedic Surgeons around the world.OSI provides a comprehensive range of specialty composite operatingtable systems, pressure management and positioning devices for Spinal,Orthopaedic and Vascular Surgery where optimum patient positioning or interoperativeimaging is desirable.Zimmer, Inc.Tel: 574-267-6131, www.zimmer.comAAOS Booth 2400 and 6312 Enquiry No 81Buechel- Pappas TricompartmentalKnee SystemThe Buehel-Pappas Tricompartmental Knee system consists of primaryand modular femoral and tibial components designed to treat a wide rangeof pathologies, from primary to revision. All metallic components areavailable with or without BioCoat ® on their fixation surfaces, allowing achoice of biological or cemented fixation. Further, all metallic componentsare made of ceramic coated UltraCoat ® surgical grade titanium alloythat improves wear resistance and eliminates the nickel sensitivity andother biocompatibility problems of Co-Cr alloy knees.The Buechel-Pappas Knee is the third-generation refinement of theNew Jersey Knee. The original design was licensed to DePuyOrthopaedics as the LCS. The current design is a significant improvementover the earlier generations in that it has superiorcongruity, further improving the wearcharacteristics of the clinically proven earlierdesigns. An additional refinement is use of astop on the rotating tibial bearing motion thatis sufficient to prevent bearing subluxationwithout inhibiting normal axial rotation.BioCoat ® and UltraCoat ® are trademarks of EndotecInc and The B-P Trust.Endotec Inc.
