The video below shows a summary of the level of precision that goes into the design of every custom made Conformis Total Knee Replacement. It all starts with a cat scan of the hip, knee, and ankle which is used to ensure the patient is going to receive a knee that is aligned neutral to mechanical axis aka straight. Then the Conformis CAD software maps out the unique shape of the patient's knee, corrected for deformity, being sure to respect the natural condylar offsets of the individual's knee.
Once the femur has been mapped out, the CAD software and engineers get to work on the tibia. Just like with the femur, each tibia has a custom-made shape that matches the unique profile of the patient's anatomy.
The final result is a knee that is a perfect fit and perfect shape. Patients who receive a Conformis Custom-Made Knee Replacement are far more likely to be satisfied with the outcome of their procedure.
