The Smith & Nephew 71421518 Genesis II PS High Flexion Articular Insert is a specialized component of the Genesis II Total Knee System, designed to support enhanced range of motion and stability for patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty. Sized 5-6 with a 15mm thickness, this posterior-stabilized (PS) insert is engineered to allow for greater flexion—ideal for patients with higher functional demands or those seeking more natural knee movement post-surgery. The design incorporates a raised central post that interacts with the femoral cam, helping to maintain stability throughout the range of motion, particularly during deep knee bending.
Constructed from high-quality polyethylene, this uncoated articular insert offers excellent wear characteristics and structural integrity. The uncoated design allows for use with cemented tibial baseplates, providing secure fixation without the need for porous or coated surfaces. The 15mm thickness accommodates joint space restoration and optimal soft tissue tensioning, making it a valuable option for surgeons aiming to fine-tune implant fit and function during complex or revision knee procedures.
The Genesis II system is known for its versatility and clinically proven performance, and the 71421518 PS High Flexion Insert exemplifies that standard. By supporting posterior stability and high-flexion activities, this insert helps enhance patient mobility, comfort, and long-term satisfaction. It is a trusted choice for orthopedic surgeons looking to deliver both flexibility and stability in total knee replacements tailored to active lifestyles.
