It will enable the customisation of the system among various patient anatomies.
The fixation system, made from a proprietary natural mineral fibre matrix, utilises the company’s OSSIOfiber Intelligent Bone Regeneration Technology. It combines mechanical strength and natural bone healing in a non-permanent implant.
Its bio-integrative material properties enable the surgeons to adapt to a more biologically friendly way to restore the stability and mobility of the patients.
Ossio CEO Brian Verrier said: “With more than 500 successful hammertoe repairs conducted to date utilising the OSSIOfiber Hammertoe Implant, along with the completion of our European multi-centre study confirming the overall safety and positive performance of our proprietary technology, confidence in achieving excellent clinical outcomes and high surgeon and patient satisfaction continues to grow.”
