Only eight months after implantation of the CMI, I have fully regained the use of my knee and I am again running 3 to 6 miles daily.

Features and Benefits

Why use Menaflex™ collagen meniscus implant (formerly CMI®)?

  • The procedure is straightforward and can be performed by any surgeon practiced in arthroscopic surgical techniques for the knee.
  • Using Menaflex helps patients return to a more active lifestyle.
  • Patients who undergo the Menaflex procedure have increased activity levels and decreased pain compared to how they felt prior to surgery.
  • Generation of new tissue in the meniscus may delay or prevent the development of degenerative joint disease in the knee.
  • Menaflex  has shown no significant safety issues in clinical studies.
  • Patients treated with Menaflex are nearly three times less likely to need additional meniscus surgery compared to patients treated with only a partial meniscectomy.
  • The Menaflex procedure can help patients avoid permanent loss of meniscus tissue.
