📢 PRESS RELEASE Medacta is pleased to announce a new milestone in knee surgery: patients undergoing Total Knee Replacement (TKR) with the GMK SpheriKA implant using the Kinematic Alignment (KA) technique are reporting levels of satisfaction comparable to those of Total Hip Replacement (THR).  “One of our main goals as surgeons is to allow patients to forget that they ever had surgery,” stated Dr. Howell. “Thanks to combining a KA-optimized implant design that mimics the conformity of the native knee with caliper-verified Kinematic Alignment, we’re now able to return patients closely to their pre-arthritic state, giving them greater overall satisfaction and the potential for athletic function.” “We are proud to celebrate this milestone that closes the gap in patient satisfaction between knee and hip replacement,” said Francesco Siccardi, CEO of Medacta. “Our unwavering commitment to improving patient outcomes is supported by a strategic focus on collaboration with expert surgeons, which fuels our vigorous pursuit of out-of-the-box thinking innovations for minimally invasive techniques and personalized solutions.” As Medacta celebrates 10 years of success with Kinematic Alignment and Ball-in-Socket innovation, the publication of this study stands as the crowning achievement, a scientific validation of a decade dedicated to improving patient satisfaction in TKA.

Start strong, stay accurate. That’s the value of Ultrasound Snap to MRI*. 🧠✨ 📣 Today, we're bringing Ultrasound Snap to MRI into focus to support surgical decisions that reflect the patient’s current intraoperative anatomy. Neurosurgery is complex, but the goal is clear: achieve maximum, safe, gross total resections. 🎯 Ultrasound Snap to MRI is a simple tool that supports this aim by enabling semi-automated rigid fusion between the preoperative MRI and the intraoperative ultrasound. This allows the surgical team to update the registration and navigate on an image reflecting the patient's current anatomy. 🖥️🩺 📈 From registration to resection, Ultrasound Snap to MRI delivers imaging that adapts in real time. 🔹 Increase intraoperative insights 🔹 Increase navigation accuracies 🔹 Real-time alignment with patient anatomy Accurate information. Confident surgical calls. Follow along for clinical insights, research and stories from the field. 👉 Learn how Ultrasound Snap to MRI can support your surgical workflow: https://bit.ly/4lD8w4T Or reach out to our team to see it in action. #Ultrasound #Neurosurgery #Surgery *Not yet commercially available in several countries.

The Power of Legacy, Elevating Healing. TrueLok™ Elevate offers an efficient, reproducible external fixation method to support transverse bone transport techniques managing soft tissue defects including ulcers. “Transverse bone transport with TrueLok Elevate now enables surgeons to effectively address challenging conditions in a patient’s extremity by allowing for an efficient and reproducible method to create a bone segment in the tibia that can then be gradually distracted over a period of several days,” said Dr. Emmy Oji, a podiatric foot and ankle surgeon at Valley Foot and Ankle Specialty Providers who was among the first surgeons to apply the TrueLok Elevate system to a patient. “Clinical publications have shown this approach improves blood circulation to the affected limb and promotes wound healing in diabetic foot, potentially reducing the need for amputation.” For indications, contraindications, warnings, precautions, potential adverse effects, and patient counseling information see the Instructions for Use or contact your local representative.

The Restoris® MCK implant designs feature bone sparing, curved surfaces. These implant features are enabled by Mako robotic-arm assistance which allows surgeons to create anatomic, sculpted resections¹ using either the burr-only or planar workflow for bone preparation. The system is indicated for medial unicompartmental, lateral unicompartmental, patellofemoral or medial bicompartmental applications.
