Surgeons utilising MicroPort Orthopedics Evolution® Medial-Pivot Knee System share their experiences.
“In my last 100 patients, I’ve not had a single patient that complained of any type of micro-instability. With the Medial-Pivot design from MicroPort Evolution, you get a really good merger of technology and technique that just has a superior outcome.”
– Dr. Philip Mostert, Orthopaedic Surgeon, Johannesburg, South Africa
“Patients regain their flexion with the greatest of ease. That’s something that’s remarkable. They’re able to bend their knee more easily, they feel stable, comfortable and confident about mobilising. The patients have come back with a more positive outcome.”
– Dr Tom Barrett, Orthopaedic Surgeon, George, South Africa
“All my patients now seem to have dramatically less post operative pain from day one.
People immediately feel that their knee moves well, but they feel comfortable and safe to walk because the knee feels stable just from the ball in socket design of the Medial-Pivot knee”
– Dr. Callie Ackermann, Orthopaedic Surgeon, Cape Town, South Africa
“I should say the thing is that we know now that we’ve seen that the Medial-Pivot is the design, the prosthesis which almost really replicates the normal knee from all the designs on the market, and this gives us really that greater stability.”
– Dr. Joost Lagast, Ghent, Belgium
“The return of range of motion is much faster, they get much better motion, they get it quicker. They’re out of the hospital sooner, their pain is better. And they seem to get back to the activities that they want to do at a much quicker rate.”
– Dr. Joseph Assini MD, Englewood, CO
“The Medial-Pivot Knee is such a unique knee by design.”
– Dr. Russell Nevins MD, Las Vegas, NV
“So, for me, the 25 year anniversary for the Medial-Pivot Knee is basically – it’s a validation that this new technology is actually effective, and has longevity. It’s proven itself over the 25 years.”
– Dr. David Backstein MD, MEd, Toronto, ON
