## Intended Use

1. Painful and disabled knee joint resulting from osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, traumatic arthritis where one or more compartments are involved. 2. Correction of varus, valgus, or posttraumatic deformity. 3. Correction or revision of unsuccessful osteotomy, arthrodesis, or failure of previous joint replacement procedure. Non-coated (Interlok®) devices are indicated for cemented application only.

## Device Story

Biomet® Microplasty Tibial Tray is a knee prosthesis component; designed for use in minimally invasive knee procedures. Features shorter stem compared to traditional trays to facilitate insertion through smaller incisions. Constructed from Co-Cr-Mo alloy. Used by orthopedic surgeons in clinical settings during total knee arthroplasty. Device serves as a base for tibial knee bearings; provides structural support for the joint replacement. Benefits patient by enabling minimally invasive surgical approach, potentially reducing tissue trauma and recovery time.

## Clinical Evidence

No clinical data. Substantial equivalence supported by non-clinical bench testing confirming adherence to Class II Special Controls Guidance Document for knee joint patellofemorotibial and femorotibial metal/polymer porous-coated uncemented prostheses.

## Technological Characteristics

Material: Co-Cr-Mo alloy. Design: Tibial tray with shortened stem for minimally invasive access. Application: Cemented. Regulatory Class: II. Product Code: JWH. Standard: Complies with Class II Special Controls Guidance Document for Knee Joint Patellofemorotibial and Femorotibial Metal/Polymer Porous-Coated Uncemented Prostheses.

## 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).

## Predicate Devices

- Interlok® Primary Tibial Trays ([K915132](/device/K915132.md))

Proprietary Name: Biomet® Microplasty Tibial Tray

Common Name: Knee prosthesis (tibial tray)

Classification Code/Name: JWH-Prosthesis, Knee, Patellofemorotibial, Semi-Constrained, Cemented, Polymer/Metal/Polymer (888.3560)

## Legally Marketed Devices To Which Substantial Equivalence Is Claimed: Interlok® Primary Tibial Trays - K915132

Device Description: Biomet® Microplasty Tibial Trays are designed to hold the tibial knee bearings in a microplasty knee procedure. The Co-Cro-Mo trays are designed with a shorter stem to allow for easier insertion through a minimally invasive incision.

## Indications for Use:

- 1. Painful and disabled knee joint resulting from osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, traumatic arthritis where one or more compartments are involved.
- 2. Correction of varus, valgus, or posttraumatic deformity.
- 3. Correction or revision of unsuccessful osteotomy, arthrodesis, or failure of previous ioint replacement procedure.

Non-coated (Interlok®) devices are indicated for cemented application only.

Summary of Technologies: The Biomet® Microplasty Tibial Trays are technologically similar to the predicate devices. The changes include material, stem length, modularity and slight changes to the locking bar.

Non-Clinical Testing: All parameters of the "Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Knee Joint Patellofemorotibial and Femorotibial Metal/Polymer Porous-Coated Uncemented Prostheses" that applied to the tibial components in this 510(k) were met.

Clinical Testing: Clinical testing was not conducted in support of substantial equivalence.

Dear Ms. Earl:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food. Drug. and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls.
