Ossur CTI Mission Knee Brace for ACL, MCL, LCL, PCL or combined instabilities (Right-Medium)

Good alternative vs expensive model.

Excellent brace helps with some of the pain from the bone-on-bone, but not all of it helps with stability worth the $ definitely 9 out of 10

Kept my knee in place, it does tend to slip down as the day goes on.

Wearing this product for 2 weeks seemed to be going well as I am awaiting ACL surgery. Going to put it on, the strap for one of the supports has already broken off. I have not performed any real activities besides walking and office work tasks. I'd have thought a $300 brace would last more time than that. Very cheap.

This brace must snug (not squishing) against the size of your knee, aka the condyles. I was on the edge, thought about going bigger but am very happy I went smaller. The Ossur videos on fit are clear the knee hinges must hug your knee such that the brace doesn't slip down when only the hinges (no straps) are on. Diagnosis: severed ACL, lateral tibial head compression fracture. Prognosis: no surgery due to degenerating knee (little arthritis, prior injury crushed meniscus), #1 heal the compression fracture and bone bruise, #2 build ROM and muscle. Brace used during bone healing was Amazon Futuro (3M) hinged and a cane. This appears to be an older model Ossur cti3 and I am very happy I got it on Amazon for less than half the price of the current models. It gives me some confidence at the dojo as I strengthen all the heretofore invisible muscles needed to live without the ACL - yes, many people apparently do! Con: no condyle pad replacements available for the CTI Mission. I intend to just use thick neoprene and cut it to fit. The Ossur human-like hinge is a bit hard to find, but is still available, as it's not made any more for this brace.
