Stryker Joint Preservation, a business unit of Stryker's Orthopaedics group, has announced in a press release that the new G-Lok implant has joined its VersiTomic portfolio for ACL/PCL reconstruction.

Built upon the same technology as products currently in the VersiTomic portfolio, the VersiTomic G-Lok is reportedly designed to provide suspension fixation of soft tissue to bone during orthopaedic reconstruction procedures. According to the release, its rod design creates a spring-like action which allows the G-Lok to automatically deploy on the cortical surface.

"Our VersiTomic platform is designed to provide surgeons with the flexibility and versatility they need to create a more anatomic ACL or PCL reconstruction while allowing them to customize their technique to the patient," Matt Moreau, vice president and general manager of Stryker Joint Preservation, stated in a company release.
