This device is indicated for:

- Moderate to severe knee instability

- Significant bone loss and/or ligament deficiencies caused by neoplasms, trauma, rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, traumatic arthritis, polyarthritis, collagen disorders, and/or avascular necrosis of the proximal and/or distal femur and/or proximal tibia.

- Valgus, varus or flexion deformities

- The salvage of previously failed surgical attempts
