CyborGel® is a novel synthetic hydrogel cartilage implant engineered and designed for the treatment of progressive and post-traumatic Osteoarthritis.
The CyborGel® Biomimetic Implant System is a set of lubricous and durable hydrogel implants designed to be installed in the knee joint. It is designed to help support and replace the function of deteriorating cartilage and prevent painful bone-on-bone contact.
Our procedure is designed to:
⦾ Help provide quick and long lasting pain relief.
⦾ Be minimally invasive and support a rapid recovery period
⦾ Potentially Delay the clinical need for a Total Knee Replacement.

Our procedure is designed to:
⦾ Help provide quick and long lasting pain relief.
⦾ Be minimally invasive and designed to support a rapid recovery period, with the goal of enabling patients to walk unassisted the same day of installation.
⦾ Studied for its potential to delay the clinical need for a Total Knee Replacement.
CyborGel’s biomimetic hydrogel has been engineered to mimic and reproduce the structure, microanatomy, and performance of natural joint cartilage. It is being studied for its potential to be used as a replacement of irreversibly damaged cartilage in synovial joints, such as the knee.
The CyborGel® Implantation technique has been developed alongside and contributed to innovations in Arthroscopy and Resurfacing Implants to hone a minimally invasive surgical implantation technique. The implant and installation technique is designed to support precise and consistent implantation, stable bone healing fixation, and an accelerated recovery period (minimally invasive surgery) with the goal of providing clinical longevity.
CyborGel® utilizes a 3D printed Trabecular Porous Metal (TPM) anchor that is designed to support osseointegration and help secure the implant with naturally occurring bone in-growth.
How long does synthetic biomimetic cartilage last?
While medical trials are ongoing, results of our rigorous testing at Colorado State University are very optimistic towards CyborGel’s durability and integration with naturally occurring bone. This durable implant system is being studied for its potential as a long-term solution to progressive OA degeneration.
*GLP Mode I Knee Simulated Tribology:
CyborGel Synthetic Cartilage hits 10M cycles with no progressive wear.
While transplanted cartilage (mosaicplasty) is subject to the same progressive disease degeneration—and thus only delays a Total Knee Replacement—CyborGel has withstood over 10M cycles (and counting) without progressive wear. The average person walks 1M cycles in a year.
Based on these tests, CyborGel is being studied as a potential long-term solution to Osteoarthritis of the knee and to help delay the need for a Total Knee Replacement.

This means CyborGel could very well be a permanent solution to Osteoarthritis of the knee and delay the need for a Total Knee Replacement, indefinitely.
