Manufacturers of modern implants provide a choice of components, sizes and fixing options that allows the doctor to create the right combination of the implant, necessary to best restore the function of the knee. To achieve stability in the joint use operations with computer navigation. During such an operation, the surgeon obtains information on the exact individual anatomy of the patient's knee and surrounding soft tissues in real time, which has a number of advantages:

• the Maximum precision of installation of the endoprosthesis — is a guarantee of stability of the knee, complete the work and durability of the new joint;
