Product Overview

To treat ankle pain in our International Markets, we offer the Talus HemiCAP® which has 10 convexities and a unique geometry. There are often patients who only have damage to the ridge and dome of the talus (usually medially). The common solutions for this type of defect are a fusion or total ankle replacement after conservative treatments have failed. For localized talar lesions, these options might be considered too aggressive, especially in a young patient. Arthrosurface® designed the Talus HemiCAP® to restore the dome, ridge and medial wall with all three curves/surfaces incorporated into one implant.

• One implant for 3 surfaces: dome, ridge and medial wall
• Screw based fixation provides a stable implant
• Inlay components restore congruency & maintain existing biomechanics
• Implant protects subchondral bone and shares load with surrounding tissue
• Minimal bone & tissue removal maintains future options – “No Bridges Burned”

Advantages for the Patient
• HemiCAP® technology was designed for patients who have failed a previous surgical treatment but want to continue working while maintaining an active lifestyles.
• May be performed on an outpatient basis
• Allows for preservation of the joint and surrounding bone
• Clinical studies demonstrate early positive clinical outcomes
• Patients experience a rapid return to their everyday activities
• Maintains existing joint biomechanics, thereby allowing normal motion
• A treatment option that bridges the gap between biological therapies and joint replacement
• Patients report pain relief, rapid recovery times and range of motion improvements

Advantages for the Surgeon
• Intuitive, universal, reproducible procedure across multiple joints
• Minimally invasive outpatient procedure can be performed in approximately one hour
• Maintains soft-tissue envelope, native joint mechanics and preserves future options
• Preserves anatomy and bone should a future joint replacement or arthrodesis be required
