Comprising a demineralised cortical bone allograft, ATLAS will be placed between the sternal edges before closure to aid in fusion and stabilisation.

It has been processed to retain native growth factors and is evaluated for osteoinductive potential, offering an osteoconductive scaffold that supports quick hydration and bone formation.

The IKON Allograft Surgical Matrix aids in incision management and sternal closure.

It is designed to minimise bioburden and inflammation while promoting the restoration of blood supply.
