Numerose versioni diverse consentono la personalizzazione in base alle diverse strutture ossee e alla possibile sensibilità. Il sistema permette l’ancoraggio sia cementato sia non cementato. L’ulteriore possibilità di modifica della superficie PorEx può ridurre il rilascio di ioni e l’usura, in quanto il coefficiente di attrito è più basso.¹⁴ I componenti tibiali modulari permettono l’approssimazione degli steli tibiali, in grado di garantire stabilità anche in scarse condizioni ossee.⁷

• Numerose opzioni di trattamento per un’ampia gamma di pazienti e indicazioni e maggiore flessibilità intraoperatoria
• Sviluppato per la ricostruzione della cinematica naturale con elevata flessione e ripristino delle funzioni a lungo termine

Nella realizzazione di piani Vit-E, la vitamina E viene utilizzata come antiossidante per proteggere il materiale neutralizzando i radicali liberi generati dall’elevata reticolazione. Le proprietà meccaniche e la biocompatibilità del prodotto sono preservate ^{_{19,20,21,22,23}}

I dinamici coni femorali e tibiali TrabecuLink sono una soluzione interessante per il restauro non cementato di difetti ossei¹⁰ e per fornire un supporto aggiuntivo alla protesi in caso di perdita ossea nella tibia prossimale. La combinazione fra design dinamico^{5, 6} dei coni e materiale biocompatibile Tilastan– E^{11, 12} è ideale per garantire una fissazione stabile e duratura e un’efficace rigenerazione ossea.

La struttura tridimensionale di TrabecuLink, grazie alla dimensione dei pori, alla porosità e alla profondità della struttura, contribuisce a promuovere l’osteoconduzione e la microvascolarizzazione, tenendo conto dei requisiti dello strato proteico che ricopre la struttura (fibronectina - vitronectina - fibrinogeno).^{1, 2} I coni TrabecuLink possono essere utilizzati in combinazione con la famiglia di protesi di ginocchio LINK Endo-Model in una vasta gamma di dimensioni e versioni. La scelta delle dimensioni corrisponde alle dimensioni delle protesi a cerniera.

Stabile nella fissazione metafisaria^{9, 13}

• Rinforzo della struttura ossea in caso di difetti dell’osso femorale e tibiale
• Elevata stabilità primaria, sia per il cono TrabecuLink stesso sia per la componente protesica cementata nel cono
• Interfaccia non cementata con l’osso per la rigenerazione ossea

Elastico grazie agli assi di piegatura integrati nella parete metallica interna

• La compressione meccanica favorisce la rigenerazione ossea^{5, 6}
• Assi di piegatura per l’adattamento alle superfici ossee
• Uniformità garantita dall’elasticità strutturale, che facilita anche l’inserimento dei coni femorali e tibiali TrabecuLink
• Effetto molla per favorire il posizionamento intraoperatorio

Versatile per un’ampia gamma di soluzioni ⁷

• Può essere combinato con tutti i componenti della famiglia delle protesi di ginocchio LINK Endo-Model
• Le dimensioni corrispondono alle dimensioni delle protesi a cerniera del ginocchio
• Possono essere realizzati modelli personalizzati

Protettivo grazie alle pareti metalliche interne

• Impedisce la penetrazione del cemento osseo nella struttura di TrabecuLink
• Fissazione affidabile del cemento mediante posizionamento speciale di “tacche” (facile revisione)

Rispettoso nei confronti dell’ambiente^{3, 8}

• Produzione della collaudata lega di titanio preservando le risorse

TrabecuLink
Struttura tridimensionale per una crescita ossea ottimale

•  La geometria dei pori (porosità: 70%, dimensione dei pori: 610 – 820 μm, profondità della struttura: fino a 2 mm) garantisce un’eccellente crescita cellulare^{1, 2, 4}
