Intended Use
The ConforMIS metal backed tibial component is intended for use with the ConforMIS Unicondylar Knee Repair System and the ConforMIS BiCompartmental Knee Repair Systems, in patients with: - joint impairment due to osteoarthritis or traumatic arthritis of the knee . - previous tibial condyle or plateau fracture, creating loss of function . - valgus or varus deformity of the knee . The ConforMIS metal backed tibial component is intended only for use with bone cement
Device Story
Metal Backed Tibial Component (mBT) is a patient-matched orthopedic implant; used with ConforMIS Unicondylar or BiCompartmental Knee Repair Systems. Input: patient-specific MRI or CT scan images; used to design implant geometry/footprint conforming to patient anatomy. Device consists of cobalt-chrome alloy (CoCrMo) tray and polyethylene insert. Used by orthopedic surgeons in clinical settings; provides alternative to all-polyethylene components. Implanted via bone cement. Benefits: improved anatomical fit through patient-matched design.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data provided. Substantial equivalence demonstrated via design verification and non-clinical performance testing.
Technological Characteristics
Materials: Cobalt-chrome alloy (CoCrMo) tray and polyethylene insert. Design: Patient-matched geometry based on MRI/CT imaging. Fixation: Cemented. Form factor: Tibial component for unicondylar/bicompartmental knee systems.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients with knee joint impairment due to osteoarthritis or traumatic arthritis, previous tibial condyle or plateau fracture with loss of function, or valgus/varus knee deformity. Intended for use with bone cement.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A knee joint femorotibial metal/polymer non-constrained cemented prosthesis is a device intended to be implanted to replace part of a knee joint. The device limits minimally (less than normal anatomic constraints) translation in one or more planes. It has no linkage across-the-joint. This generic type of device includes prostheses that have a femoral condylar resurfacing component or components made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum, and a tibial component or components made of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene and are intended for use with bone cement (§ 888.3027).

#### Intended Use:
The ConforMIS metal backed tibial component is intended for use with the ConforMIS Unicondylar Knee Repair System and the ConforMIS BiCompartmental Knee Repair Systems, in patients with:
- joint impairment due to osteoarthritis or traumatic arthritis of the knee .
- previous tibial condyle or plateau fracture, creating loss of function .

#### Device Description
The ConforMIS Metal Backed Tibial Component is to be used with either the ConforMIS Unicondylar | Knee Repair System or the ConforMIS BiCompartmental Knee Repair System to provide the surgeon with an alternative tibial component in the event that he/she prefers to use a metal backed component rather than an all polyethylene component. It consists of a cobalt-chrome alloy (CoCrMo) tray and a polyethylene insert. The X/Y dimensions of the device (i.e. the twodimensional shape or "footprint") are designed to conform to the patient's anatomy as closely

as possible based on images (MRI or CT scan) of the patient's knee.
### Comparison to Predicates
The ConforMIS Metal Backed Tibial Component substantially equivalent to is the tibial components cleared for the ConforMiS Unicondylar and BiCompartmental Knee Repair Systems in the is use of imaging data to design a patient-matched implant geometry, as well terms of design and production process, as well as materials and indications. It is substantially equivalent to the cited predicate devices in terms of design, materials, mechanical safety and intended use. All are intended for cemented use only.
#### Performance Data
Non-clinical Performance and Conclusions:
Testing completed as part of the design verification procedure for the ConforMIS Unicondylar Knee System found this device to be as safe and effective as the predicate further devices. confirming substantial equivalence.
Clinical Performance: Clinical data and conclusions are not necessary to demonstrate substantial equivalence.
### SUMMARY
Based on the similarities in design, materials, function, and intended use the ConforMIS Metal Backed Tibial Component is substantially equivalent to the devices currently marketed under the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act. In addition, the ConforMIS Metal Backed Tibial Component raises no new safety or effectiveness issues.
