Without concession to the tribology of the knee joint, nor to the quality of materials used and their manufacture, the Universal ROLFLEX TKA proposes a simplified range of sizes:
Femoral Condyles and tibial baseplates made of Cobalt-Chromium
Reversible femoral Condyles right and left available in 6 sizes for cemented use only
A/P and M/L dimensions, and femoral resections identical to those of the Anatomic version
Accentuated and highly congruent trochlear groove identical to Anatomic version
Reversible tibial baseplate right and left available in 6 sizes, including the 3 smaller sizes with short keel
Center of rotation of tibial insert in the middle of the M/L dimension
The available tibial inserts, available in 5 thicknesses are made of polyethylene PEXEL moderately crosslinked and vacuum-packed.
Instrumentation set limited to 3 trays
And as for the Anatomic Rolflex, the polyethylene material used for the bearings is the PEXEL: moderately crosslinked which delivers significant wear resistance without reducing the mechanical caracteristics of the material.
