GMRS

Global Modular Replacement System 

 

The Global Modular Replacement System is a segmental prosthesis designed for patients requiring extensive reconstruction of the hip joint and/or knee joint, including knee fusions, necessitated by extensive bone loss due to trauma, failed previous prosthesis and/or tumor resection.

GMRS System

Overview

 

The GMRS was developed for reconstruction of large segmental defects for tumors, failed previous arthroplasty or trauma. This system is designed to:

  • Reconstruct large segmental defects of the knee
  • Reconstruct osteoarticular defects of varying sizes
  • Allow for variation and intraoperative changes of the surgical plan

  

 

 

Clinical Evidence

In clinical studies, GMRS has demonstrated:

Good or excellent function results in 97% of cases at minimum two-year follow-up, with no difference between sites (distal femur, proximal tibia) or types (primary, revision) of oncologic reconstruction.1

“Low risk of revision and amputation” when using the GMRS prosthesis in patients suffering from bone tumors caused by sarcomas, giant cell tumors, or metastatic bone disease. The authors observed a 74% probability of five-year revision-free survival in the cohort.2
