Paediatric craniofacial surgery
Resorbable fixation, cranial springs and distractors for congenital skull malformations.
Patient-specific planning
Virtual 3D planning that leads to custom implants, anatomical models and guides.
Cranio-maxillofacial surgery
Titanium and resorbable osteosynthesis, distraction and patient-specific implants for the facial skeleton and mandible.
Hand & foot surgery
Plates, screws, joint prostheses and distractors for the hand, wrist and foot, in titanium and resorbable magnesium.
