Jiffy Knee™
A muscle-sparing approach to knee replacement.
Exploring your options for knee replacement? The Jiffy Knee™ is a total knee replacement technique designed to preserve the muscles and tendons around the knee.
Rather than cutting through the quadriceps tendon to reach the joint, the approach uses specialized instruments to move the muscle aside. Learn more about the procedure and discuss your treatment options with our orthopedic team.
- Muscle- and tendon-sparing technique
- A complete total knee replacement
- Suitability evaluated for each individual patient
Every patient is different, and individual results vary. An orthopedic evaluation is needed to determine which treatment is appropriate for you.
