Regrowing your knee with a collagen meniscus implant

Hear Dr. Stone explain how a collagen meniscus implant can help regrow or repair a meniscus, (the knee's shock absorber) with a Collagen Meniscus Implant (CMI). The CMI is a biological device made of highly purified collagen, which is designed to promote a self-healing process by acting as a trellis for new meniscus tissue to grow into, reconstructing missing segments of the meniscus shape. In fact, the Collagen Meniscus Implant is not so new. Kevin R. Stone, of The Stone Clinic in San Francisco, invented it in 1986. It was the world’s first orthopedic tissue regeneration template and it was tested extensively in animals and people, and found to be safe and effective. A private company ultimately developed the device and conducted further trials, gaining Europe’s CE mark of approval in 2000. It has been available in Europe ever since, with over 4000 procedures performed. It was briefly available in the USA (2008 - 2010) but a dispute with the FDA has meant that the implant has been off the market for almost 5 years. This dispute has just been resolved and the CMI is once again available to people in the USA. Read more on our blog. http://www.stoneclinic.com/blog/regro...
