OrthAlign has released its flagship Lantern product in Japan. The company said the launch will be driven by its longstanding commercial partner, who has represented OrthAlign in the market since 2013.
Lantern supplies individual alignment to total, partial, and revision knee replacement patients via a single-use, handheld technology. It can be used across implant platforms and surgical philosophies, according to the company.
OrthAlign also touted that its user-friendly design and streamlined workflows allow its use in any operating room, at any time.
"We are thrilled to launch Lantern in Japan and expand our offering to include gap balancing and revision knees. This launch marks a significant milestone for our strategic partnership and global expansion efforts," said Eric Timko, chairman and CEO of OrthAlign.
In 2023, the company posted a record-breaking year with over $50 million in global revenue.
"The feedback from our Japanese partners and customers has been incredibly valuable in helping us perfect what we do, making this launch extra special,” Timko went on. “The excitement from our current users, new surgeons and the local sales team has been off the charts! We are confident that Lantern and the Balance application will not only boost our market leadership position in Japan, but also provide fantastic growth opportunities for our local partners."
