Aesculap Implant Systems introduced the Position HTO Plate System. The new system is manufactured of pure titanium with an anodized surface and offers a solution for a range of needs, according to a company press release.

The instruments are specifically designed for the implant and allows for the option of minimally invasive surgery. The Position HTO Maxi Plate complements the current Position HTO plate. The Position HTO Maxi Plate, cleared by the FDA in November 2010, provides surgeons flexibility and stability to perform larger osteotomies due to the longer plate length and the ability to use additional screws.

The Position HTO System gives surgeons more options for treating their patients by using either the smaller, modular HTO plate or the larger HTO Maxi Plate depending on anatomy, indication, and correction height, as stated in the release.
