Zimmer Biomet Holdings, Inc. announced U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) 510(k) clearance for the Persona(R) OsseoTi(R) Keel Tibia for cementless knee replacement. Persona OsseoTi is the latest addition to the clinically proven Persona Knee System, and features a new porous version of the Persona anatomic tibia with Zimmer Biomet's OsseoTi Porous Metal Technology, which uses anatomical data in combination with 3D printing technology to build a structure that directly mimics the architecture of human cancellous -- or spongey -- bone. This material is combined with a keeled design to deliver stable initial and biological fixation.

Key features of Persona OsseoTi include an anatomic tibia for less micromotion and optimal bone coverage(i) and 3D printed, porous OsseoTi technology for biological fixation. The Persona OsseoTi Keel Tibia is also complemented with a new cemented implant option to enable seamless versatility for the surgeon during the procedure.
