OrthoPreserve Meniscus Implant

OrthoPreserve is developing an artificial meniscus implant to fill a critical treatment gap for patients with symptomatic meniscus dysfunction. Our implant is engineered from a composite biomaterial that replicates the mechanical properties of natural meniscus tissue, restoring joint cushioning and stability through a minimally invasive procedure using common arthroscopic techniques.

Patients with ongoing meniscus issues are left with few options to relieve their pain, restore mobility, and preserve their long-term knee health:

• Conservative non-surgical treatments are largely ineffective and do not address the underlying dysfunction;

• Meniscectomy (trimming) surgery provides only temporary relief and accelerates a cascade of knee degeneration;

• Knee replacements are highly invasive, costly, and generally only indicated for older patients with advanced arthritis.

A significant treatment gap exists for patients with meniscus dysfunction who are not yet ready for a knee replacement.
