Zimmer CAS PSI X-Ray Knee in TKA (Total Knee Arthroplasty)

The objective of the observational study is to assess the positioning of customized guides designed from patients X-Rays (Zimmer® X-Ray PSI Knee) using optical navigation in primary total knee arthroplasty.

The proposed research is a single center, prospective, case series, and non-controlled study. One orthopedic surgeon will perform 30 primary TKAs using X-Ray PSI Knee guides, generated from X-ray. Patients who have been appropriately indicated as candidates for TKA and who meet the specified inclusion and exclusion criteria, will be informed about Zimmer® X-Ray PSI Knee technology and offered entry into the study. Informed consent, in accordance with current ethical board regulatory requirements and best practice, will be obtained from all patients.

* Able to:
* Understand what participation in the study entails and willing to consent (patient or his/her legal guardian) to participate in the study by signing and dating an IRB/EC approved inform consent form. and

* Has had a prior ipsilateral unicompartmental knee arthroplasty, TKA, knee fusion or patellectomy.
* Has hip or knee ankylosis.
* Have indications of intra- and/or extra-articular deformations that would eliminate or tend to eliminate adequate implant support or prevent the use of an appropriately sized implant, such as polio, history of tibial plateau fracture, etc.

* Has a mental condition that may interfere with his/her ability to give an informed consent or interfere with his/her ability or willingness to fulfill the requirements of the study.
* Has a condition that would place excessive demands on the implant (e.g., Charcot's joints, muscle deficiencies, multiple joint disabilities, skeletal immaturity, etc.).
* Has collateral ligament insufficiency.
