DePuy launches new pin guide for knee implants
DePuy Orthopaedics Inc. announced the availability of the Trumatch Pin Guide for use with the Sigma Fixed Bearing Total Knee System.
According to a company press release, the pin guide is part of the Trumatch Personalized Solutions portfolio, a surgical instrumentation and computer software system designed to aid in knee implant positioning. With the Trumatch Pin Guide, orthopedic surgeons have the option to choose whether to use a pin guide or a cutting guide in their procedures. It offers surgeons intra-operative flexibility; a smaller, lower profile jig for less invasive procedures; an integrated alignment guide to improve ease of use; and reusable, re-sterilizable metal guides for pin drilling.
