The Role of Cartilage and Bone
Cartilage and bone are integral components of the knee joint, working in harmony to facilitate smooth movement and weight-bearing. Cartilage serves as a cushion between the bones, absorbing shock and reducing friction during movement. Meanwhile, bone provides structural support and stability to the joint by anchoring muscles and ligaments in place.
Addressing Cartilage Damage with Ormi
Cartilage damage, often caused by injury, arthritis, or degenerative conditions, can lead to pain, stiffness, and limited mobility within the knee joint. Ormi steps in to address this issue by offering a biomimetic cartilage platform that closely mimics the properties of natural cartilage. This specialized platform is precisely placed within the damaged area, providing targeted relief and restoring joint function.
Key Features of Ormi
Ormi's cartilage-mimicking platform replicates the structure and function of natural cartilage, promoting optimal joint function and pain relief. The porous titanium base enables bone ingrowth, ensuring secure fixation and stability within the subchondral bone tissue. By promoting bone growth and integration, Ormi facilitates long-term stability and durability, minimizing the risk of implant loosening or failure. With the aid of specialized instrumentation, orthopedic surgeons precisely position the Ormi implant within the damaged cartilage, ensuring a tailored fit and optimal performance. The procedure allows individuals to regain mobility and resume their daily activities.
In addition to treating cartilage damage, Ormi also addresses bone defects within the knee joint, providing comprehensive restoration for individuals with complex joint issues. Through its innovative design, Ormi facilitates bone ingrowth, allowing the implant to integrate seamlessly with the surrounding bone tissue and promote the long-term stability of the subchondral bone.
