Metaphyseal bone fracture treatment by balloon technique

OSTEOPLASTY™ kit is a minimally invasive system for the reduction of metaphyseal fractures and bone height restoration, reducing related pain.

Minimally invasive solution;
Bone height restoration: gradual and controlled elevation of the area to be treated;
Reduced risk of infections;
Preservation of physiological anatomy and protection of the treated area for any subsequent revisions;
Fast recovery after treatment;
Ready-to-use bone substitute:
– No preparation needed;
– Hardening in the wet environment only: no time pressure during application;
– Truly biologic: composed of a microcrystalline, calcium-deficient hydroxyapatite (major bone constituent);
– High compressive strength (up to 45 MPa);
– Radio-opaque paste: clearly visible under fluoroscopy and X-rays;
– Bioresorbable during bone remodelling.

OSTEOPLASTY™ is a kit designed for a minimally invasive surgical technique used to treat cases where the fracture has caused subchondral bone collapse or depression (tibial plateau, calcaneus, proximal humerus and distal radius injuries).

A specialised balloon catheter is inserted into the subchondral region of the fracture site and gradually inflated, gently elevating the depressed bone fragments to restore the original joint contour. Once the fracture is reduced and the bone structure is restored, the balloon is deflated and removed. The created cavity is then filled with a ready-to-use biological cement to provide structural support and prevent re-collapse.

The procedure described is indicated for the treatment of patients who have been diagnosed with a tibial plateau depression fracture, according to the Schatzker classification system, corresponding to:

TYPE II fractures
TYPE III fractures

The system, depending on the fracture type and bone quality, can be used with or without additional plates and/or screws.
