Product
Genu Ligaflex® Close — Hinged ligament knee brace with physiological TM5 hinge and rigid aluminium uprights.

Short description
Genu Ligaflex® Close (closed/sleeve version) provides medial-lateral stabilisation and controlled flexion-extension guidance for conservative treatment of knee ligament injuries and for return to sport. Available in short (30 cm) and long (40 cm) lengths.

Detailed description
Genu Ligaflex® Close is a sleeve-type hinged knee brace designed to stabilise moderate to severe ligamentous insufficiencies and joint laxity.
The orthosis integrates a physiological TM5 hinge that reproduces the knee's natural axis of rotation and two anatomically shaped rigid aluminium uprights for lateral stabilisation.
The compressive elastic knit delivers compression and proprioceptive feedback while anatomically shaped elastic zones and silicone-coated threads at the upper edge improve hold and patient comfort.
An oval patellar insert provides targeted support; staggered half-straps reduce tourniquet effect. The open version uses a clip-buckle closure with perforated strap markers for easy fitting.
Available lengths: short (30 cm) and long (40 cm).
