Arthrosurface acquired acellular dermal stabilization device IP from WASAS, to develop methods to be used to correct orthopaedic challenges in multiple therapeutic areas.
Human-derived acellular dermis is historically used in a range of clinical indications. The acquired allograft will support applications identified by Arthrosurface’s surgeon customers.
U.S. Patent Application 20170189197, filed in 2015 by WASAS, is titled System and Method for Non-binding Allograft Subtalar Joint Implant. Per the abstract, the system provides a pre-formed allograft rod plug that is compressible and flexible. When disposed between talus and calcaneus bones, the plug compresses during normal use of the person’s foot and maintains the canal in an anatomically correct alignment, reducing a tendency for abnormal motion between the talus and calcaneus bones.
