MX Orthopedics announces FDA clearance for compression staple

MX Orthopedics Corp. has announced the recent FDA clearance for its patent-pending dynaMX Compression Staple featuring malleable nitinol technology.

The dynaMX Compression Staple is indicated for fracture and osteotomy fixation of the hand and foot, joint arthrodesis of the hand and foot, and fixation of proximal tibial metaphysis osteotomy. It is the first staple to combine superelastic legs for compression with a malleable bridge that can be contoured by the surgeon to match the patient’s anatomy for improved functionality and comfort, according to a company press release.

“The dynaMX product line represents the next generation of fracture fixation and utilizes [MX Orthopedics] metallurgical and engineering expertise, resulting in simple and intuitive implants that benefit patients,” Matthew Fonte, CEO of MX Orthopedics Corp., said in the press release.
