Take the Next Step Towards your Conformis Knee.

One Patient. One Implant.

Patient Testimonial:

Marty Meyers (Palm Beach, FL)

“I was playing golf at six weeks. I don’t fear making a turn and coming through where your knees bend and the bone would rub on the bone. It doesn’t happen anymore, so I don’t even think about it. My whole life just turned around.”

 

Marty Meyers saw four different orthopedic surgeons and they all told him the same thing – they said they had implants in a handful of size options and they’d try to find the one that most closely matched. When he saw Dr. Greg Martin, however, he learned that he was a candidate for a customized ConforMIS iUni® partial knee replacement.

Image-to-Implant® Process

iFit Image-to-Implant® software is the technology platform that allows for the design of our patient-specific implants and instrumentation. Proprietary algorithms convert a CT scan of the knee to a 3D model by mapping the articular surface of the joint and defining the area of disease. That 3D model is used to design the implant and the surgical instrumentation that is unique to each patient.

iFit® Design

ConforMIS implants and instruments are designed based on the patient’s CT scan. An automated design process uses proprietary algorithms to map the articular surface of the joint in three dimensions. The software uses that information to design the implants and instrumentation that will match precisely to the 3D model of the knee, correcting the data for any underlying arthritic deformity such as bone spurs, cysts or flattening of the joint.

iFit® 3D Additive Printing

Our disposable, patient-specific iJig® instrumentation is manufactured using the latest in 3D printing technology. This allows us to develop patient-specific instruments for every step of the procedure.

iFit® Just-in-Time Delivery

ConforMIS is the only orthopedic company with just-in-time manufacturing and delivery capabilities. This means that our single-use kit is delivered a few days before surgery, removing the inventory from hospital shelves. This also allows for rapid design improvements that can be implemented immediately.

ConforMIS Knee Replacement technology gives surgeons the tools they need to treat their patients

Gary Levengood, MD

 

Dr. Gary A. Levengood is the Founder and President of Sports Medicine South, LLC in Lawrenceville, GA. He is Board Certified in Orthopaedic Surgery and Sports Medicine by the American Board of Orthopedic Surgeons.

Of ConforMIS’ Knee Replacement technology, Dr. Levengood says, “I just sat there scratching my head, because I couldn’t believe that I could take a patient that was that far out of alignment and put him back into alignment without having to do a lot of extensive soft tissue work. And that patient was amazed too, because they didn’t think they’d ever see a straight leg again.”
