Meniscus suture

The human knee joint is a complex biomechanical system. It is formed by the articular surfaces of the femur and tibia, as well as the patella. The inner surfaces of the joint are covered with cartilage.
Всі елементи суглоба з’єднані між собою за допомогою суглобової капсули та зв’язок. Між суглобовими поверхнями стегнової та великогомілкової кісток розташовані хрящові структури – внутрішній і зовнішній меніски.

Meniscus

- are crescent-shaped cartilage formations located inside the knee joint.
Damage to the ligaments and menisci significantly disrupts the normal functioning of the joint, leading to an uneven distribution of the load on the articular cartilage. Parts of the cartilage that are subjected to excessive pressure begin to break down quickly. Articular cartilage damage is an irreversible process that contributes to the development of deforming osteoarthritis and significantly limits the functioning of the knee joint as a locomotor system.

The meniscus is an important component of the joint that should be preserved whenever possible.

FiberStitch™ implant

- is an innovative all-in-one meniscus repair system that replaces rigid implants with soft suture membranes and is designed for safe and effective soft tissue repair.
