Intended Use

Indicated for use in knee arthroplasty for reduction or relief of pain and/or improved knee function in skeletally mature patients with the following: 1) noninflammatory degenerative joint disease including osteoarthritis, traumatic arthritis, or avascular necrosis; 2) inflammatory degenerative joint disease including rheumatoid arthritis; 3) correction of functional deformity; 4) revision procedures where other treatments or devices have failed; and 5) treatment of fractures that are unmanageable using other techniques. Unicondylar knee system is indicated for patients with unicompartmental joint disease secondary to the above indications with or without valgus, varus, or flexion deformities where all ligaments are intact. The ADVANCE® Unicondylar Knee System components are for single use only. The ADVANCE® Unicondylar Knee System components are for cemented use only.

Device Story

The ADVANCE® Unicondylar Knee System is a modular orthopedic implant for knee arthroplasty. It consists of a Co-Cr femoral component, an all-poly UHMWPE tibial component, and a modular titanium metal-backed UHMWPE tibial component. The system is intended for cemented, single-use implantation by surgeons in a clinical setting. The modular metal-backed tibial component features a titanium base (ASTM F136) and a UHMWPE insert, utilizing a peripheral dovetail and two-peg cement interface. The device functions as a mechanical replacement for damaged knee joint surfaces to reduce pain and restore function. The modular design allows for component selection based on patient anatomy. Clinical benefit is derived from the restoration of joint mechanics and relief of symptoms associated with degenerative joint disease or trauma.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided; substantial equivalence is supported by design comparisons, materials data, and bench testing.

Technological Characteristics

Materials: Titanium (ASTM F136) for tibial base, UHMWPE for tibial insert, Co-Cr for femoral component. Design: Modular metal-backed tibial component with peripheral dovetail and two-peg cement interface. Connectivity: None. Sterilization: Not specified. Software: None.

Indications for Use

Indicated for skeletally mature patients requiring knee arthroplasty for pain relief or improved function due to noninflammatory/inflammatory degenerative joint disease, functional deformity, failed prior treatments, or unmanageable fractures. Specifically for unicompartmental joint disease with intact ligaments, with or without valgus, varus, or flexion deformities.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A knee joint femorotibial metal/polymer semi-constrained cemented prosthesis is a device intended to be implanted to replace part of a knee joint. The device limits translation and rotation in one or more planes via the geometry of its articulating surfaces. It has no linkage across-the-joint. This generic type of device includes prostheses that consist of a femoral component made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum, and a tibial component made of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene and is limited to those prostheses intended for use with bone cement (§ 888.3027).

# B. DEVICE DESCRIPTION

The ADVANCE® Unicondylar modular metal-backed tibia is part of the ADVANCE® Unicondylar Knee System that was previously submitted and cleared under 510(k): K012591- ADVANCE® Unicondylar Knee System. Wright Medical Technology is now enhancing the ADVANCE® Unicondylar Knee System by adding a modular titanium metal-backed UHMWPE tibial component. The ADVANCE® Unicondylar Knee System now contains the following components; Co-Cr femoral component, all-poly ultra-high molecular-weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) tibial component and modular titanium metal-backed UHMWPE tibial component.

The ADVANCE® Unicondylar femoral component is identical to the femoral component previously submitted and cleared under ADVANCE® Unicondylar Knee System -510(k): K012591.

The ADVANCE® Unicondylar all-poly tibial component is identical to the all-poly tibial component previously submitted and cleared under ADVANCE® Unicondylar Knee System - 510(k): K012591.

The ADVANCE® Unicondylar modular metal-backed tibial base is manufactured from The ADVANCE® Unicondylar modular tibial insert is titanium (ASTM F136). manufactured from the identical UHMWPE as the ADVANCE® Unicondylar all-poly tibial components (510(k): K012591). The profile and sizing (Sizes 1, 2, 3 & 4) of the ADVANCE® Unicondylar modular metal-backed tibial components are identical to the ADVANCE® Unicondylar all-poly tibial components (510(k): K012591). The cement interface for the ADVANCE® Unicondylar modular metal-backed tibial components consist of a peripheral dovetail and two pegs and is substantially equivalent to the cement interface of the ADVANCE® Unicondylar all-poly tibial components (510(k): K012591). The articulating surface is identical for both the ADVANCE® Unicondylar modular metal-backed tibial insert and the all-poly tibial component (510(k): K012591). The locking mechanism for the ADVANCE® Unicondylar modular metal-backed tibial components is substantially equivalent to the ADVANTIM® Unicondylar modular metalbacked tibial components (510(k): K881779).
