MicroPort Orthopedics Launches Evolution Tibial Cones

MicroPort Orthopedics introduced Evolution Tibial Cones throughout North America. The implants are designed to address challenges during revision total knee arthroplasty procedures, particularly in managing metaphyseal bone loss.

Evolution Tibial Cones are constructed from OsteoSync Ti—a highly porous titanium scaffold—a material that provides exceptional structural support and initial fixation. This material, manufactured by Sites Medical, has demonstrated excellent initial fixation and bone apposition vs. other similar materials, enhancing component performance including:

• Higher coefficient of friction than leading competitors, contributing to initial implant stability.
• Excellent bone apposition results support early rigid fixation.

Available in six symmetric sizes, the tibial cones are versatile enough to accommodate various bone defects and can be stacked up to three cones high in a single construct for cases with severe bone loss.

Features include:

• Offers a flexible surgical approach with options for conical reaming or broaching, based on surgeon preference.
• Provides early rigid fixation, critical for the success of revision TKA procedures.

“We are excited to bring this cutting-edge solution to market and continue our commitment to improving patient outcomes in joint reconstruction,” said Badhri Iyengar, Interim President at MicroPort Orthopedics. “The positive feedback from the initial cases reaffirms our belief that adding the Evolution Tibial Cones to the only Medial-Pivot Revision Knee System in the market not only provides our surgeon customers with the tools they need but continues to set a new standard for patient care and experience.”
