Very popular implanted condylar knee system from Depuy.
Fairly easy to use though progressive modifications of the instrumentation have not been particularly intuitive in my view. It is one of the most common knee implants however therefore Depuy must be doing things right.
Survivorship in the NJR is very good and its results speak for themselves. Probably not my first choice TKR but one that I would be happy to use.

This is an excellent device with an established track record. There have been recent changes to the base plate and polyethylene locking mechanism which means longer term results may not apply to the new design.
