MYKNEE ® ADVENTURE

INNOVATION: THE KEY TO SUCCESS
Patient matched technology

Special features of MyKnee ®:

2. A virtual positioning of
the implant is proposed to
the surgeon who can modify
the planning as he wishes.

HOW TO START with myknee

■	 Complete in-house technology ensuring the assistance of a personal MyKnee® technician and only 3 weeks lead time!

d esigned f or you by you !

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.

4. Once the planning
has been validated by
the surgeon, the in-house
manufacturing process
starts.

■	 Accurate implant positioning[1-11]
■	 No intramedullary canal violation
■	 Up to 60% reduction of surgical steps for bone resection and related time
■	 	Potentially one extra case per surgery session

®

■	 	Up to 66% reduction of time and cost in washing, assembling and sterilization procedures

MYKNEE EDUCATION PROGRAM
When attempting a new procedure or working with new technology one is always challenged with the associated learning
curve. This can often lead to discouragement and could even prevent perseverance which would prevent one from taking full
advantage of the benefits offered by the new procedure or technology.
To minimize this learning curve and guided by the successful AMIS® Education Program (continuously training hundreds of
surgeons worldwide), the M.O.R.E. Institute has created a comprehensive Education Program which supports the surgeon
step-by-step in the application of the MyKnee® system.
■	1st step: The Reference Center
	 Available in several countries worldwide you will have the opportunity to visit a Reference Center and attend live MyKnee®
surgeries.
■	2nd step: The Learning Center
The MyKnee® Learning Center offers you the opportunity to attend live MyKnee® surgeries, meet experienced surgeons and discuss
the clinical and economical aspects of MyKnee® technology.
■	3rd step: Support
Upon request you will receive the assistance of an experienced Reference Surgeon to assist with your first surgeries in your
own hospital.
■	4th step: Continuous Education
You can continue your education through GMK® and MyKnee® user meetings, M.O.R.E. International events, Reference
Center visits and other educational tools.

■	 Actual Cutting Blocks, not only pin positioners

■	 Online case management

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.

Interactive 3D web planning

The MyKnee® cutting blocks are made to accurately match the surgeon‘s preoperative planning,
based on individual patient‘s anatomy and his mechanical axis:
■	 THIS ONE WORKS!
	 Published articles prove the accuracy and effectiveness of MyKnee® [1-11]

■	 Unmistakable positioning: The MyKnee® guides are positioned on the bone referring to
distinct references: the osteophytes.
	
■	 Maximized visibility through the guides during both blocks positioning and resections.
	
■	 Telescopic alignment rod: The guides allow a drop rod to be connected, allowing you
	 to validate intraoperatively the actual positioning and axial alignment of the blocks.

■	 Actual Cutting Blocks,
	not only pin positioners
	 The bone resections are performed directly through
	 the slots and all the checks can be done intraoperatively
	 before pinning the cutting blocks.

■	 Less risk of emboli[14]

Mean blood loss (ml)

■	 A personal MyKnee® technician just
for you
	Each surgeon is assigned a MyKnee® technician who
is his reference person for all questions and needs.

■	 CT or MRI based
	Freedom to choose the preferred imaging technology.

No intramedullary canal violation
■	 Less bleeding[13]

■	 Complete in house technology
	 The MyKnee® process is entirely kept in house from
the 3D anatomical reconstruction to the cutting blocks
manufacturing, allowing a direct contact between the
surgeon and his personal MyKnee® technician.

Emboli distribution as a percentage of patients
operated comparing using IntraMedullary jigs with
not using IntraMedullary jigs.

■	 Only 3 weeks lead time
	 The shortest delivery time in today‘s market for this
technology.

■	 Online case management
	 The MyKnee® cases are managed entirely online,
	 without the need of installing any software.
	 The cases database is available to the surgeon at any time
	 from everywhere and, moreover, the information on the website is
	 always kept up-to-date.

■ No IM jigs
■ IM jigs

For every case the surgeon can modify all femur and tibia parameters such as:
■	 Femoral distal and anterior-posterior resection levels, femoral rotation, femoral flexion, femoral and tibial varus/valgus,
■	 Tibial resection level and tibial slope.
The MyKnee® team is always at surgeon‘s disposal and is pleased to collaborate.

Having less blood loss allows the hospital structure and patient
to save money associated with transfusions[10]

Moreover the patient may benefit:
■	 Less exposure to the risk of infection[15]
■	 Less time under anaesthesia
■	 Less tourniquet time

■	 Only 2 MyKnee® trays opened vs. 6 or more for a conventional TKR
■	 Specific implants ready in the operative room
■	 Less set-up time & turnover time
■	 Less risk of losing and damaging pieces
■	 Fewer cleaning requirements
■	 Improved overall operative room logistics and efficiency

Once approved by the surgeon, Medacta® produces MyKnee® cutting blocks using in house laser sintering technology.
The guides are then shipped to be setup for surgery.
