Unicondylar knee insert

1,134 devices · GMDN 48070

A unicondylar knee insert is a sterile, implantable component used in knee joint replacement surgery to replace the damaged cartilage on one side of the joint. It articulates with the femoral and tibial parts of the prosthesis, allowing smooth movement in a partial knee replacement, and is typically shaped as a single contoured piece of polyethylene.

These inserts are supplied as part of a complete unicompartmental knee system and are regulated as medical devices that must meet standards for sterility and biocompatibility. They are used in both primary and revision procedures and are classified according to the regulatory requirements of each market.
