## Intended Use
The Genesis II Deep Flexion Cruciate Retaining Articular Insert is intended to be used in conjunction with the components of the Genesis II Total Knee System. The Genesis II Total Knee System is indicated for rheumatoid arthritis; post-traumatic arthritis, osteoarthritis, or degenerative arthritis in older patients whose age, weight, and activity level are compatible with an adequate long-term result; failed osteotomies, unicompartmental replacement, or total knee replacement. Posterior stabilized knee systems are designed for use in patients in primary and revision surgery, where the anterior and posterior cruciate ligaments are absent or incompetent and the collateral ligaments remain intact. The Genesis II Deep Flexion Cruciate Retaining Articular Insert is used with existing cemented femoral, tibial tray, and patellar components of the Genesis II Total Knee System cleared via K951987 and K953274. The Genesis II Deep Flexion Cruciate Retaining Articular Insert is for single use only. The Genesis II Deep Flexion Cruciate Retaining Articular Insert is intended to be used in conjunction with the components of the Genesis II Total Knee System. The Genesis II Total Knee System is indicated for rheumatoid arthritis; post-traumatic arthritis, osteoarthritis, or degenerative arthritis in older patients whose age, weight, and activity level are compatible with an adequate long-term result; failed osteotomies, unicompartmental replacement, or total knee replacement. It where the anterior and posterior cruciate ligaments are absent or incompetent and the collateral ligaments remain intact. The Genesis II Deep Flexion Cruciate Retaining Articular Insert is used with existing cemented patellar and uncemented porous tibial trays and femoral components of the Genesis II Total Knee pattern cleared via K030612. The Genesis II Deep Flexion Cruciate Retaining Articular Insert is for single use only.
## Device Story
Genesis II Deep Flexion Cruciate Retaining Articular Insert; UHMWPE tibial component; used with Genesis II Total Knee System components (cemented or porous/uncemented). Enables greater flexion range for patients with anatomical capability. Single-use device; implanted by orthopedic surgeons in clinical/hospital settings. Provides articular surface for knee joint; facilitates joint motion; supports long-term knee function. Benefits include improved range of motion for eligible patients.
## Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Mechanical test data indicates the device is equivalent to currently used clinical devices and capable of withstanding expected in vivo loading without failure.
## Technological Characteristics
UHMWPE tibial component; semi-constrained; designed for use with Genesis II Total Knee System femoral, tibial tray, and patellar components. Single-use.
## Regulatory Identification
A knee joint patellofemorotibial polymer/metal/polymer semi-constrained cemented prosthesis is a device intended to be implanted to replace 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 have a femoral component made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum, and a tibial component or components and a retropatellar resurfacing component made of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene. This generic type of device is limited to those prostheses intended for use with bone cement (§ 888.3027).
