Medacta’s core philosophy is based on the belief that innovation is the key to success. This leads to a constant effort towards the development of cutting edge solutions for Orthopaedics. MyKnee is a patient-specific cutting block, allowing the surgeon to realize his pre-operative 3D planning, based on CT or MRI images of the patient’s knee.
This innovative concept combines different features giving potential benefits to both the surgeon and to the patient.
Accurate implant positioning.
No intramedullary canal violation.
Up to 60% reduction of surgical steps for bone resection and related time.
Potential increase of the number of cases per session.
Up to 66% reduction of time and cost in washing, assembling and sterilization procedures.
Interactive 3D web planning.
Based on individual patient‘s anatomy, the MyKnee cutting blocks are manufactured to accurately match the surgeon‘s preoperative planning and feature:
Highly reliable positioning thanks to bone reference and osteophyte contact
Maximized visibility through the guides during both blocks positioning and resections.
Possibility to connect the extramedullary alignment rod to intraoperatively validate the actual positioning.
Ability to set the femoral rotation by drilling pins for the 4in1 cutting guide.
Since the surgical technique does not require intramedullary canal violation, the risks of embolism, the need for transfusion, and the blood and hemoglobin loss are reduced.
