Integra’s Tibiaxys plating system has received clearance from the FDA, and a CE Mark certification in the European Union.
According to Integra, the Tibiaxys system is designed specifically to address ankle arthritis and deformity, and is manufactured from titanium alloy for strength and biocompatibility.
The Tibiaxys plating system will be sold by Integra’s 80 person extremity reconstruction sales organization, which focuses on lower extremity fixation, upper extremity fixation, tendon protection, peripheral nerve repair/protection and wound repair.
Robert Paltridge, president of extremity reconstruction at Integra, said: “We feel that Integra provides excellent surgical options for the complex reconstructive procedures used to address mid and hind foot arthritic disease. The Tibiaxys system will be a significant addition to the surgeon’s armamentarium.”
