Tantalum Metal Trabecular Tibial Augment Type II

Knee

The Tantalum Metal Trabecular Tibial Augment Type II. is a specialized reconstructive component designed for revision Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA). For surgeons facing uncontained or segmental bone defects, the Type II augment provides the robust structural integrity and biological interface necessary to restore the proximal tibia and ensure the longevity of the knee assembly.

Key Clinical Features

High-Porosity Tantalum Scaffold: Features an interconnected, biomimetic pore structure that facilitates rapid osteointegration, allowing the patient's own bone to grow through the augment for permanent biological fixation.
Superior Scratch Fit: The inherent high coefficient of friction of Tantalum provides exceptional primary stability against the host bone, preventing micro-motion during the early post-operative healing phase.
Optimal Stress Distribution: Engineered with a modulus of elasticity closer to bone than traditional metals, this augment reduces stress-shielding, helping to maintain and protect the density of the surrounding tibial bone.
Expanded Type II Geometry: Specifically designed to address larger or asymmetrical bone voids, providing a stable, level surface for the tibial tray even in cases of significant segmental loss.
Chemical & Biological Inertness: Tantalum’s high level of biocompatibility ensures it is well-tolerated by the body, minimizing the risk of adverse tissue reactions in complex revision scenarios
