Exactech reported the successful first surgery using the Alteon® Acetabular Cup and XLE® Liner.
The device, which gained FDA 510(k) clearance earlier this month, provides multiple implant configurations and bearing options for the Alteon portfolio and features TAC™ asymmetric porous coating. XLE highly crosslinked vitamin-E enhanced acetabular liners undergo a patented gamma irradiation and mechanical annealing process, to achieve the desired crosslink density.
Exactech will commence U.S. rollout in 2H19.
