Salient Characteristics:
1. Sigma High Performance Partial Knee is a unique system comprised of unicondylar and patellofemoral implants and a full range of state-of-the-art instruments to perform both of these procedures. The system's implants are designed to treat degenerative joint disease one compartment at a time: medial uni, lateral uni and patellofemoral. This allows the surgeon to replace only the affected compartment, leaving healthy bone, cartilage and ligaments intact. The modularity of the system addresses one of the main reasons for early intervention revision, disease progression. Because of the ability to maintain the ACL with this system, normal kinematics in activities of daily living can be achieved. The uni components are designed for patients who require a higher than normal degree of flexion, providing support up to 155 degrees. The combination of a highly polished cobalt chrome tray with a moderately cross linked polyethylene insert is designed to help reduce backside wear. The system is complemented by High Performance instruments offering precision, efficiency and accuracy. The surgical technique using these instruments is robust and reproducible, taking only the amount of bone necessary, preserving bone and soft tissue.
Features:
• The only company that enables user to convert from Fixed-bearing to Rotating Platform
Design on the femoral component during a Primary total knee replacement.
• The only company that enables user to use augments on a primary total knee arthroplasty.
• The only company to allow the usage of sleeves on a primary femoral component.
• The only company to allow the usage of sleeves on a primary tibial component.
• The only company to offer polyethylene insert sizes from 8mm to 30mm.
