Product catalog summary

Overview of FHK® Total Knee Prosthesis
The FHK® total knee prosthesis is a third-generation implant designed with a focus on user needs and based on well-established principles of knee prosthetic surgery. It offers both fixed and mobile bearing options to accommodate different surgical philosophies and common indications.

Philosophy and Design
The FHK® prosthesis respects knee biomechanics, aiming to reduce wear and preserve bone integrity. The mobile bearing design enhances congruency, reducing polyethylene wear and preserving femur bone. The fixed bearing design minimizes dislocation risk and stress on the base, with a femoral cam that reduces leverage on the polyethylene.

Patella Options
The patella implant is available in two versions: resurfacing and inlay, designed to fit the prosthetic trochlea groove and reduce anterior compartment pressure.

Femoral and Tibial Characteristics
The femoral component features a single radius for optimized kinematics, reduced anterior pressure, easier rehabilitation, and enhanced stability. The tibial component offers optimal coverage and anchorage wings for strong primary stability, especially in bones with higher density.

Customization and Instrumentation
The FHK® system allows customization in instrumentation, offering choices in tibial and femoral cuts, and references. Options include intramedullary or extramedullary tibial alignment, and posterior or anterior femoral referencing.

Contact Information
FH Orthopedics provides contact details for their offices in France, USA, and Poland for further inquiries.

philosophY The FHK® total knee is a third generation prosthesis resolutely turned towards the user, based on the most widely validated principles of prosthetic knee surgery. RESPECT OF KNEE BIOMECHANICS Fixed bearing The system of postero-stabilisation allows reduce the risk of dislocation without excessive stress on the base. Femoral cam is located in an area to reduce the leverage on the polyethylene and thus loosening constraints. Postero-stabilisation mechanism allows to preserve bone stock. FHK® range offers a choice of implants fixed bearing (PS and CR) and mobile bearing, to match to philosophies...

FEMORAL CHARACTERISTICS TIBIAL CHARACTERISTICS Single radius An optimal tibia coverage Tibial coverage results from a morphological analysis to get closer to the most surfaces commonly encountered. Optimisation of kinematics; Decrease anterior pressure; Make rehabilitation easier; Enhance stability during flexion/extension. Anchorage wings Oriented to the areas with more bone density, they provide a strong primary anchorage, guaranteeing a good osteointegration at longer term. A deep trochlea groove Coating Additional stems They help to ensure good primary stability on poor bones. • Reduces stress...
