Legion Conceloc uses Smith+Nephew’s proprietary advanced porous titanium and is 3D-printed. The first U.S. procedures were completed in October, and the device is available in North America.

“Legion Conceloc addresses the critical elements of the cementless total knee through its unique design,” Mathias Bostrom, MD, one of the system’s designing surgeons, said in a news release from Smith+Nephew. “The asymmetrical keel is designed to help achieve immediate bone fixation, while the patented 3D-printed structure of Conceloc encourages biological ingrowth.”

At the Becker’s 32nd Annual Meeting: The Business and Operations of ASCs, taking place October 29-31 in Chicago, ASC leaders, surgeons and healthcare executives will explore strategies to drive growth, enhance operational performance, navigate reimbursement challenges and prepare for the future of ambulatory surgery.
