Nextremity Solutions plans to launch its new LapiPrep System this Spring.
LapiPrep is an instrument system that provides a versatile jig and integrated, modular components to support accurate and repeatable deformity correction and precise preparation of the first metatarsal and medial cuneiform of a patient’s foot to perform a Lapidus bunion procedure.
The patent pending design and modularity allow for curettage, saw cuts or burr preparation as determined by the surgeon and their specific surgical preference, whether traditional open or MIS.
The system was designed to guide and facilitate, but allow surgeons a choice in preparation technique as well as final determination of the fixation method that is best for the patient; namely crossing screws, plating options, etc.
“The goal of LapiPrep was to design a simple and straightforward system to address and assist the surgeon with the challenging aspects of the Lapidus procedure, while providing flexibility and freedom to the surgeon. The engineers and surgeon team have spent an extraordinary amount of time to get this right, and we’re excited to introduce it to the market,” stated Ryan D. Schlotterback, Chief Technology Officer for Nextremity Solutions.
