Summary |
“Tripod-Fix”, that is promising in every class of VCFmost importantly in wedge fracture is needed. “Tripod-Fix” made by titanium uses triangular pyramid-like design with three-dimensional expansion mechanism to increase stability against verticalhorizontal forces during placement. The advantages for Tripod-Fix treatment are to fix the angle of spine, stabilize the VB,insert the cement to avoid re-collapse. It is an effectivelow-risk restoration product for patients with VCF allowing a fastsustained improvement in quality of life. |
Scientific Breakthrough |
"Wiltrom developed the first advanced vertebral augmentation system called Tripod-fix for patients with VCF - in particular, wedge fractures. Compared to traditional surgical products, the strengths of Tripod-Fix are in the following:
1. Accuracy
Patients with VCF especially wedge fracture benefited from Tripod-Fix controllable treatment to deploy.
2. Stability
The three legs of Tripod-fix increase stability against verticalhorizontal forces during placement.
3. Safety
Retractable design of Tripod-Fix is capable of implant repositioning, safer for patient during operation" |
Industrial Applicability |
The global vertebral compression fracture (VCF) market is growing rapidly at CAGR 5.7. Wiltrom Co., Ltd. integrated clinical consultant team to verify the unmet needs of VCF. So far, nearly 300 patients have received Tripod-Fix treatment in medical centers of Taiwan. The painfunction significantly improvedcontinued decreased without deterioration in patients with no device-related adverse event report during long-term follow up. Thus, Tripod-Fix treatment is an effectivelow-risk restoration procedure for patients with VCF allowing a sustained improvement in quality of life. |
