Smith+Nephew received FDA 510(k) clearance for its LANDMARK Total Knee System, which uses a fully 3D-printed femoral component and integrates with the CORI KNEE Handheld Robotics platform. The system aims to improve personalised knee replacement and is planned for phased commercial launch across markets in 2027.
