PRODUCT OVERVIEW MUTARS MK

The GenuX® MK -Modular Knee- system is a further development of the existing GenuX® knee revision implant which is successful in clinical use since 2006. The GenuX® MK has been developed to off er the intraoperative choice between Mobile-Bearing and Fixed-Bearing PE-Inlays. Moreover, the focus is on the new design of the tibial and femoral component with less bone resection and an easy instrumentation. The biomechanically optimized MUTARS® GenuX® MK coupling allows for 130° fl exion. The Range of Motion (ROM) of the MUTARS® GenuX® MK coupling is 142°. To simplify the system the same stems are used femorally and tibially in conjunction with off set adapters.

MUTARS® (Modular Universal Tumor And Revision System) has been successefully used since 1992 for the treatment of major osseous defects of the lower and upper extremities. Its modular design was developed in co-operation with Univ.-Prof. Dr. W. Winkelmann* (em. Director) and Univ.-Prof. Dr. G. Gosheger (Director), Department of General Orthopaedics and Orthopaedic Oncology at the University Hospital of Münster, Germany. The system shows good functional results and allows an individual solution for major osseous defects including arthoplasties of the adjacent joints.
