Remix your reconstruction

Surgeons continue to pursue solutions in TKA to both improve patient satisfaction - by making the knee feel more normal - and reduce some of the most common failure modes such as tibial aseptic loosening, instability and infection.1,2 However, current implant designs have not addressed both objectives and literature still cites that up to 20% of patients are not satisfied.3-5

We mix things up on our approach to TKA, combining the anatomic design and normal kinematics6-10 of JOURNEY II TKA with the cutting-edge technology of CONCELOC Advanced Porous Titanium and the unrivalled material science11-17 of OXINIUM Oxidized Zirconium, to build the foundation for outcomes youll want on repeat.

We call it our greatest hits. You’ll call it a best-in-class knee construct.
