Cotton Wedge
Our Cotton wedge system is a sterile, 3D-printed implant made from a biocompatible medical-grade Titanium alloy. It is specifically designed for fractures or osteotomies of the foot and ankle, ensuring superior internal bone fixation. Its porous structure enhances osseointegration by maximizing surface area to volume ratio and promoting greater interconnectedness, as supported by scientific research. Cotton wedges are utilized in various foot osteotomies, including opening wedge osteotomies and medial cuneiform osteotomies, particularly for the treatment of flatfoot. [1]
Product Overview
Product Overview
When Cotton wedges with TPMS porosity design are manufactured using biocompatible medical-grade materials and leading-edge 3D printing technology, the chances of a good surgical outcome are significantly enhanced.
Workflow
Imaging
To match the reduction surface with the wedge.
Product Manufacturing
3D printing technology is used to construct the wedge in different sizes with titanium, cobalt-chrome, and tantalum.
Surgery
The sterilized wedges in various sizes are given to the physician. An employee of our company may serve in the operating room to help with wedge placement.
Specifications
Based on the clinical evaluation of the patient and the desired course of therapy, surgeons and the engineering team always work together to develop the shape and features of the wedge.
To encourage bone ingrowth and osteointegration as secondary stability of the fixation, the base structure of these wedges may incorporate a TPMS lattice structure, such as gyroid because complex surface topography provides expulsion resistance and it will make a union.
These wedges allow for the customization of any design according to the doctor’s preferences, so they are developed in various footprint sizes and thicknesses to accommodate different patient anatomies.
Based on the intended inserter we threaded the hole to facilitate the wedge placement.
