Total knee replacement surgery is widely accepted as effective treatment for degenerative joint disease (DJD), osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. Relief of patient pain and return of mobility are the primary goals that can be accomplished by this surgery. Currently available prosthetic designs accomplish these goals and the surgery has been defined as one of the most successful operations available to improve the quality of life for patients with DJD. This study will evaluate subjects who are candidates for a total knee replacement and meet the indications for use criteria for the 3DKnee™ System with vitamin E UHMWPE tibial inserts (VE).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the use and efficacy of the 3DKnee™ System using Vitamin E UHMWPE tibial inserts for total knee replacement surgery.
