innovative bio-tech
company
We are an innovative bioengineering company that has been conducting research and development activities in the field of long bone intramedullary implants since 2017. Our team consists of experts and specialists from multiple scientific fields such as orthopedics, mechanics, biomechanics, biomedical and materials engineering.
Our mission is to help people with asymmetry in lower limb length or short stature. In response to their needs, we are launching a medical product, the OrthoNail Hybrid Intramedullary Nail with magneto-mechanical drive. Our solution is designed to help patients with congenital, developmental, post-traumatic or iatrogenic defects. It can also be used in aesthetic medicine. Thanks to the implementation it will be possible to optimize the process of elongating long bones, which will result in faster therapy and patient’s return to normal functioning.
