Unmet clinical needs.
Prevalence of knee osteoarthritis (OA)
1.3 Million
people globally receive knee replacement surgery every year, with more and more people being treated younger.
Cementless implants fail less
50%
Cementless implants reduce the risk of loosening by 50% and offer long-term biologic fixation without the need for cement in the body.
High long-term failure rate of current implants
35%
Existing implants see high failure rates in young patients and the leading cause of failure is loosening between the implant and bone.
Partial knee replacements are better for patients & providers
50%
of patients are suitable for partial knee replacements, which offer faster recovery and better outcomes for patients and are cost effective.
One Step Further
Knee implants combining innovative 3D-printed articulating surfaces with biomimetic cementless fixation for enhanced functionality, superior fixation, and a long-lasting bone foundation.
