Zimmer Minimally Invasive Solutions (MIS) Knee Procedures
|
Minimally invasive procedures are revolutionizing orthopaedic medicine, and Zimmer has been there from the start. For knee surgeons, Zimmer offers multiple choices, including the Subvastus, Midvastus and Medial Parapatellar approaches as well as Zimmer MIS Quad-Sparing™ Total Knee Procedure and MIS-specific Tibial options. |

MIS Quad-Sparing TKA
MIS Quad-Sparing TKA is characterized by a capsule-only exposure with no dissection or disruption of the quadriceps muscles or tendon. The MIS Quad-Sparing Procedure is the newest offered within the knee portfolio of approaches.
MIS Subvastus TKA
MIS Subvastus TKA involves separating the vastus medialis from its attachment and moving the muscle laterally.
MIS Midvastus TKA
MIS Midvastus TKA is a muscle-splitting approach that involves less than a 2cm snip into the vastus medialis where it approaches the quad tendon.
MIS Medial Parapatellar TKA
MIS Medial Parapatellar TKA is a popular approach because of its familiarity, simplicity, and the excellent exposure of all three compartments of the knee. This approach may be the easiest to attempt when adopting a Zimmer MIS Procedure.
Basic MIS Instrumentation Options are available for these procedures: MIS Multi-Reference® 4-in-1, MIS Intramedullary, MIS Quad-Sparing, and MIS Natural-Knee II Instrument Sets.
Training available on these technologies: The Zimmer Institute provides surgeons the didactic and surgical skills training for Zimmer procedures and products.
