Zimmer® NexGen® MIS™ Tibial Component
Innovative Design for MIS Procedures
|
The NexGen MIS Tibial Component was designed specifically to address the challenges and demands of minimally invasive TKA. The new Zimmer design incorporates broad proximal fins that engage the tibia in the area of highest bone density for secure fixation, while its low profile makes it easier to insert into the minimally invasive arthrotomy. Its modular design with drop down extension capability expands physician options. |

Instrument Specifics
Zimmer has developed a set of innovative instruments to facilitate minimally invasive surgery. These instruments include features such as offset handles to provide clearance from the patellar tendon, posterior hooks on the sizing plate which can be deployed to provide tangible feedback on position and hollow broaches to eliminate the need for drilling.
