First Case with FH ORTHO e-ORTHO Shoulder Software

Olympus announced the successful completion of a first use case with e-ORTHO Shoulder software, created by FH ORTHO. The case featured the Arrow Prime shoulder implant, for which e-ORTHO 3D planning software was used to create the surgical technique. Olympus acquired FH ORTHO in 4Q20.

e-ORTHO web-based uses CT scans of the entire scapula to construct a 3D model of the anatomy to assist in preoperative surgical technique planning without the need for custom instruments.

“We believe that this case may have saved OR time because of our pre-operative planning with e-ORTHO,” said Dr. Schofield of Schofield, Hand and Bright Orthopedics, Sarasota, Fl. “We look forward to continued use of the e-ORTHO system, which helps assist with optimizing glenoid adjustment, helps in adapting to the unique anatomical features of each patient, and could help a surgeon visualize a potential complication pre-operatively, while allowing for contingency planning to address potential complications.”
