Joint Preservation
However clever our engineers, mother nature will always produce better joints than mankind. This is a central philosophy to Joint Operations, implanting a prosthesis takes away the natural joint that if healthy will move better and last a lifetime.
Helping surgeons to preserve joints, we first provide tools to repair damage to the soft tissue and cartilage. If this damage is too great we offer unique technologies to help the body regenerate cartilage, ligaments and meniscus. As a final step in our Joint Preservation portfolio, we can resurface defects in the joint surface whilst preserving the healthy surrounding tissue.
Through the work of Joint Operations and our suppliers, thousands of UK and Irish patients have delayed or avoided an early joint replacement.
