ExsoMed products include:
- INnate – ExsoMed’s solution for treating metacarpal fractures. INnate is an intramedullary threaded nail designed to provide surgeons with a solution for treating metacarpal fractures through a simple, minimally invasive approach.
- InFrame – Designed specifically for phalanx fractures, providing surgeons with a reliable solution through a simple, minimally invasive approach. The robust length offering of InFrame is intended to accurately fit the intramedullary canal and achieve bicortical bone purchase, creating stable fixation and precise reduction for all types of phalanx fractures.
- ArrowPhix – ExsoMed’s arrow-shaped screw for functional variable angle DIP fusions. The related ArcPhix is an angled screw for strong, functional angle DIP fusions. Research has shown that when a patient’s distal interphalangeal joint is fused in a functional position, finger dexterity and grip strength improve over that of a patient with a straight, strength fusion.
