Joint resurfacing with Cartiva SCI is simple, does not require significant removal of healthy tissue, and typically results in nominal surgical trauma and rapid recovery.<\/p>\n<h2 dir=\"auto\">Features &amp;\u00a0Benefits<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li dir=\"auto\"><strong>Synthetic:\u00a0<\/strong>No risk of viral or bacterial transmission due to animal derived materials<\/li>\n<li dir=\"auto\"><strong>Biocompatible:\u00a0<\/strong>No systemic irritation in 10+ years of clinical use<\/li>\n<li dir=\"auto\"><strong>Biostable:\u00a0<\/strong>Does not degrade<\/li>\n<li dir=\"auto\"><strong>Durable:\u00a0<\/strong>Capable of withstanding repetitive loading<\/li>\n<li dir=\"auto\"><strong>Compliant:\u00a0<\/strong>Suppleness and flexibility allows for easy implantation<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-441 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/peninsulafootandankle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/IMG_1046-300x219.png\" alt=\"Cartiva Surgery\" width=\"300\" height=\"219\" srcset=\"https:\/\/peninsulafootandankle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/IMG_1046-300x219.png 300w, https:\/\/peninsulafootandankle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/IMG_1046-768x562.png 768w, https:\/\/peninsulafootandankle.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/IMG_1046.png 770w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/li>\n<li dir=\"auto\"><strong>Slippery:\u00a0<\/strong>Low friction coefficient<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p dir=\"auto\">A synthetic cartilage replacement for osteoarthritis.<br \/>\nCheck out \u201c1st MTP Animated Procedure\u201d from Cartiva Inc on Vimeo.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"auto\">The video is available for your viewing pleasure at\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/vimeo.com\/208821189\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/vimeo.com\/208821189<\/a><\/p>\n<p dir=\"auto\">If you like this video, make sure you share it, too!<\/p>\n<p dir=\"auto\">Vimeo is filled with lots of amazing videos.
