  • Video
  • 3D view
  • Downloads
  • Sources
  • Flexible in a wide range of compatible implants to choose from
     
  • Anatomical design, for potential bone and soft tissue preservation
     
  • Expandable thanks to compatibility with MEGASYSTEM-C

Anatomically Adapted

  • 6° valgus from the joint line
  • Tibial plateau with 8° slope to dorsal
  • The deep patellar articulating groove creates physiological patellar movement and patellar self-guidance2

 

 

 

 

 

Wide Range of Stems

  • Modular stems, cemented and cementless, for femur and tibia
  • Cemented monoblok stem for tibia

Reproducible Surgical Technique

  • Interfaces, tailored to the
    LINK GEMINI SL Primary Knee
  • Modern, modular instrument set

Flexible

  • Intraoperative changeover from rotational to hinge knee with implant components in situ
  • Intraoperative flexibility because fully compatible with MEGASYSTEM-CTumor and Revision System1

Designed for Reliability and Stability

  • Based on the LINK Endo-Model
  • Large “jump distance” for more secure knee flexion

Coupling and Decoupling in the Joint Plane

  • Minimal soft tissue distraction during reduction

Rotational Stability in Extension

  • Stability even if there is soft tissue damage
  • The implant was developed to achieve a natural gait – combined with maximum reliability

Potential for bone and soft tissue preservation

  • Coupling with only minor distraction and minimal soft tissue release
  • Optimal box dimensions conserve bone substance
