MyKnee System: a new vision in total knee replacement. 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. 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.

1st World Conference on Anterior Hip Approach
Medacta® International is proud to announce its biggest event since the creation of the company 10 years ago. In September 2009, the
First World Conference on Anterior Hip Approach
will be held in Zurich with the participation of an internationally recognized faculty. During this event, where more than 400 participants are expected, there will be 2 live surgeries performed with the anterior hip approach. The first one presenting our new resurfacing product called Romax® and the second one introducing our new femoral stem; the AMIStem, specifically developed for an Anterior Minimally Invasive Surgery.
This is the first time that an orthopaedic company has dedicated its R&D activities to conceive and design a new orthopaedic implant for a specific surgical technique. It is for Medacta a logical step to have now a specific event on that topic in combination with the 5 years anniversary of AMIS®.
