Howmedica 6633-8-195 Orthopedic L/XL XXL Duracon Primary Stabilizer Box Guide
Duracon Primary Stabilizer Femoral Box Preparation Guide | Model 6633-8-195 | Sizing Allocation: Large / Extra-Large / Double Extra-Large (L / XL / XXL Variant) | Intramedullary Posterior Cruciate Substituting Intercondylar Notch Shaving Template
The Stryker Howmedica 6633-8-195 is a professional-grade, reusable, operating room-grade orthopedic instrument expertly engineered to guide the precise intercondylar box resection of the distal femur during primary posterior cruciate-substituting (PS) total knee arthroplasty. Specifically designed for compatibility with the classic Duracon Primary Stabilizer Knee System and forged from high-tensile, corrosion-resistant surgical stainless steel, this sizing guide spans the upper-tier anatomical range accommodating Large, Extra-Large, and Double Extra-Large (L/XL/XXL) femoral preparations. Functioning as a rigid, non-slip template that mounts securely to the resected distal femoral condyles via dual 5/16" fixation peg slots, the 6633-8-195 provides clear horizontal and vertical cutting slots to execute the intercondylar box cut. This specialized geometry ensures highly repeatable bone profiling to seamlessly accommodate the housing box of the final PS femoral implant, preserving mediolateral stability while minimizing the risk of inadvertent bone fracturing or structural notch widening.
