Treace Medical Completes First Surgery with New HyperPlate XM Implant

 

Treace Medical Concepts, Inc. has announced the completion of the first surgical case using its HyperPlate XM Dynamic Compression Locking Implant, a new addition to the company's foot and ankle product portfolio. The implant combines FastPitch locking screws with titanium compression plates, and is designed for midfoot and hindfoot procedures including talonavicular, calcaneocuboid, naviculocuneiform, and tarsometatarsal fusion applications, as well as Evans calcaneal osteotomies.

Paul Dayton, DPM, of the Foot & Ankle Center of Iowa in Des Moines, performed the first case, which involved a talonavicular joint fusion. Dayton, a paid consultant of Treace, said the implant offered "a highly stable construct with an anatomic shape designed to promote fusion in these larger midfoot and hindfoot applications." He noted the GreatReleaseXM instrument made soft-tissue release "significantly more efficient."
