Knee Pain Relief Without Joint Replacement: The MISHA Knee System

If medial knee osteoarthritis (pain on the inner half of your knee) is keeping you from an active lifestyle, you don't have to choose between temporary injections and total knee replacement. As an orthopedic surgeon specializing in joint preservation, I offer the MISHA Knee System—an innovative implantable shock absorber that reduces pain and keeps your natural joint intact.

How the MISHA Knee System Works:

MISHA is placed just beneath the skin outside the knee joint during an outpatient procedure and acts like a high-performance shock absorber. It reduces peak forces on the painful medial compartment with every step.

Proven Clinical Outcomes

  • Sustained Pain & Functional Relief: Published 5-year data in the Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery demonstrates durable, long-term pain relief and functional improvements.
  • Can Delay Knee Replacement: High 5-year joint preservation success rates have allowed patients to keep their natural joints longer
  • Rapid Recovery: Outpatient procedure with no activity or weight bearing restrictions.

Are You a Candidate for MISHA?

Do you experience pain on the inner side (medial compartment) of your knee?
