Zimmer® Segmental System

Product catalog summary
Overview: The Zimmer Segmental System is designed for patients with severe bone loss due to disease, trauma, or revision. It offers cross-system capabilities with the NexGen RH Knee, providing flexibility for complex reconstructions. The system incorporates Trabecular Metal Technology for biologic fixation and features a modular hinge mechanism that supports 95% of the load through the tibial condyles.
Compatibility and Components: The system is compatible with various NexGen components, including RH Knee Distal Femoral, Cement Shield Polyethylene Insert Components, Patellar Components, and Tibial Baseplate Components. It also includes stem components and offers multiple unique stem options with variable stiffness tips to reduce stress inside the bone.
Key Features:
  • Trabecular Metal Technology: Provides maximal bone contact with 75%-80% porosity for enhanced bone ingrowth and flexibility, reducing stress shielding.
  • Anteversion Alignment Mechanism: Allows for optimal alignment with 20-degree incremental adjustments.
  • Proximal Femur Component: Offers a 38mm femoral neck offset and compatibility with both pressfit and cemented stems.
  • Strong One-Piece Hinge-Post: Ensures reliable hinge stability and can be used with the existing NexGen RH Knee femur.
  • Transitional Articular Surface: Allows for increased intraoperative options, especially beneficial in oncology cases.
Testing and Durability: The system has undergone extensive testing, including torsional fatigue tests, segmental system stem tests, combined load tests, and rotary overhang fatigue tests. All components demonstrated durability and strength, surviving tests simulating years of activity without fracture or loosening.
Conclusion: The Zimmer Segmental System is a versatile and adaptable solution for salvage cases, utilizing advanced technologies to address severe bone loss effectively. It offers a range of components and compatibility options to match patient-specific needs.

A Step Forward The Zimmer® Segmental System is designed to address patients with severe bone loss associated with disease, trauma or revision. Cross-system capabilities with the NexGen® RH Knee provide the flexibility necessary for challenging reconstructions. No other salvage system has Trabecular Metal™ Technology at key fixation interfaces, enabling biologic fixation. Building on the design of the NexGen RH Knee, this system features a modular hinge mechanism that results in 95% of the load being carried by the tibial condyles.1 Cross-System Capabilities The ability to interchange select components...

Trabecular Metal Material simulates bone like no other prosthetic material. That’s because it is designed to replicate the shape, the cellular structure, the elasticity, and the weight-bearing characteristics of bone. It’s a unique, highly porous, three-dimensional biomaterial, not a coating. Thus, it allows significant bone and soft-tissue ingrowth. With over 200,000 worldwide surgeries performed since 1997 using Trabecular Metal Implants, the results are in: Trabecular Metal Material is indeed The Best Thing Next to Bone. Unique Trabecular Metal Technology The only salvage system to offer advanced...

Torsional Fatigue Test Testing representing 10 years of stair-climb activity was completed. All segment pairs completed testing without fracture, deformation or relative rotation between segments.1 Segmental System Stem Test Segmental stems and cemented Trabecular Metal Technology collars were paired with a MOST Options® proximal femur and cyclically tested at 7.5 times body-weight. The components survived testing without fracture and with no evidence of loosening at the stem/collar interface. Multiple Unique Stem Options Stems are available in fluted and splined styles. Length Fluted straight...
