FDA clears Exactech porous 3D tibial implant for knee replacement

Exactech announced today that it received FDA 510(k) clearance for its Truliant porous tibial tray, a 3D tibial knee implant.

Truliant leverages additive manufacturing to create a porous structure designed to mimic the structure of cancellous bone. Exactech designed it to facilitate both initial and biological fixation to accommodate patients’ active lifestyles.

The laser-printed 3D tibial tray features peripherally placed tibial pegs, a dual v-channeled keel and optional cancellous bone screws. These combine to increase rotational stability and allow an increased bone-implant interface. Exactech said the FDA clearance marks a significant milestone and positions the company to address the growing demand for cementless knee solutions.
