Products
Resorbable tendon/ligament fixation interference screw
Implantable interference screw intended for soft tissue reattachment in shoulder, elbow, foot/ankle, knee, and hand/wrist surgeries; engineered for tendon-friendly geometry and tap-in insertion.
Knotless suture anchor (resorbable)
Knotless suture anchor designed to secure sutures into bone for soft tissue reattachment, enabling use of surgeon-preferred sutures and tap-in implantation.
Synthetic bioactive bone graft / bone void filler
Pliable, sponge-like synthetic bone graft material intended to fill bony voids in extremities and pelvis; designed to resorb predictably and be replaced by host bone, and to be combined with saline, blood, or bone marrow as needed.
Porous interpositional scaffolds (rotator cuff / tendon-bone interface)
Porous interpositional scaffold concepts designed to be deployed at tendon–bone interfaces to support tendon–bone integration and regeneration.
Osteotomy wedges and structural fusion implants
Implant concepts intended to support fusion and osteotomy procedures by enhancing mechanical stability and optimizing correction and fusion parameters.
Spinal interbody spacer concepts
Interbody spacer designs intended to support spinal fusion by enhancing sagittal alignment and mechanical stability.
