Orthofix Medical commenced limited market release and first patient implant of the Virtuos™ Lyograft, a reportedly first-of-its-kind, shelf-stable and complete autograft substitute for spine and orthopedic procedures. This allograft is prepared by MTF Biologics through a proprietary process that preserves all biologic components necessary for bone healing within the graft. Virtuos is provided in a room-temperature, ready-to-use, moldable form.
Virtuos is intended to offer logistical and cost-savings advantages to the hospital with improved shipping, storage and operating room efficiency. The room temperature shipment and storage of Virtuos eliminates the use of large quantities of dry ice, Styrofoam shippers and freezer storage, enabling flexible shipping options and reduced packaging, with the aim of a reduced carbon footprint.
Virtuos Lyograft is a complementary addition to the line of biologics offered by Orthofix through its exclusive partnership with MTF Biologics including the Trinity Elite™, Trinity Evolution™, FiberFuse™ Advanced and FiberFuse Strip allografts, AlloQuent structural allograft and the Legacy™ DBM. In addition to MTF Biologic solutions, Orthofix markets and distributes the Opus™ BA bioactive bone graft, Opus™ Mg Set bone void filler, Opus™ osteoconductive matrix and the O-Genesis™ graft delivery system.
“The Virtuos Lyograft provided through our exclusive partnership with MTF Biologics is at the forefront of allograft technology,” said Orthofix President of Global Spine Kevin Kenny. “Processed through a proprietary preservation method, Virtuos provides the best of both worlds. It delivers a high-quality shelf-stable bone graft with the clinical performance and superior handling that clinicians desire, as well as streamlined logistics for storage and preparation for the hospital.”
