Buechel-Pappas™
Revision Knee System
In pathology where there is grossly deficient bone stock the B-P™ knee System contains modular revision components which provide stem fixation to augment the usual compressive surface fixation. A stem may also be used to traverse shaft fractures.
We Balance Gaps!
Modular Femoral Component
- Designed to replace the complex geometry of the femoral articular surface while maintaining an anatomical valgus angle.
- Radii of curvature decrease from anterior to posterior in a coordinated fashion to provide full flexion while maintaining excellent bearing congruity with either tibial component.
- Geometry of the design also congruently accommodates the varus-valgus and rotary motions.
- It accepts a large variety of diameters and lengths of extension stems.
Modular Tibial Bearing
- This component is used in the absence of viable cruciate ligaments to provide functional stability by use of proper tension control of the surrounding soft tissues of the knee.
- These bearings come in a variety of thicknesses to allow flexibility in bone resection of the tibia, to correct gross deformities, and can be extremely useful in revision arthroplasties.
- A modular bearing with a removable stem is available to ease bearing replacement with the metallic components in situ.
Modular Tibial Component
- Accepts the same extension stems that are used with the Revision Femor.
- Stop does not engage the bearing unless spinout is induced.
- If this occurs, spin is limited so that normal compression of the joint results in self reduction of the bearing to a normal orientation.
Modular Stems
- The stems are available in diameters ranging from 10 through 16 mm in 2mm increments.
- Length Range 50mm, 75mm, 100mm, 125mm, 150mm.
- Connection is reliable, convenient and free of micro-motion.
Wedges
- Distal, Posterior and Tibial wedges options are available
- Metallic augments to compensate for bone loss.
- A series of such augments is provided for both femoral and tibial augmentation.
- Distal Femoral augments are available in six sizes two thicknesses (5 and 10mm).
- Posterior Femoral augments are available in six sizes, three thicknesses (5, 10, and 15mm).
- Tibial augments are available in six sizes, three thicknesses (5, 10 and 15mm).
