Exactech, a global medical technology leader, announced it has received FDA 510(k) clearance for its Truliant® Porous 3D Tibial Tray, a 3D tibial knee implant. This clearance marks a significant advancement in cementless knee replacement solutions, offering surgeons additional options for personalization in total knee arthroplasty.
The Truliant Porous Tibial Tray utilizes additive manufacturing to create a porous structure that mimics cancellous bone. This design is intended to facilitate both initial and biological fixation, accommodating the active lifestyles of patients undergoing knee replacement surgery.
Key Features of the Truliant Porous 3D Tibial Tray
The Truliant Porous laser-printed 3D tibial tray incorporates several features designed to enhance stability and bone integration:
- Peripherally placed tibial pegs
- A dual v-channeled keel
- Optional cancellous bone screws
These elements are engineered to increase initial rotational stability and expand the bone-implant interface, promoting better long-term outcomes.
Addressing the Demand for Cementless Fixation
"With a focus on cementless fixation and increased efficiency, it is no surprise that Truliant Porous is the fastest growing segment of Exactech’s knee portfolio," said Adam Hayden, Exactech Chief Marketing Officer and Senior Vice President of Large Joints. "By expanding our porous offerings with the laser-printed tray, knee surgeons will have access to additional sizing and fixation options for the personalization of their patients’ total knee replacement procedures, improving upon Exactech’s already successful cementless knee."
This FDA clearance positions Exactech to meet the growing demand for cementless knee solutions, providing surgeons with advanced tools to improve patient outcomes in total knee replacement procedures.
