FDA has cleared an IntraFuse 510(k) for its FlexThread Fibula Pin System that is intended to provide percutaneous fixation of distal fibula fractures, primarily Danis-Weber B type fractures, or trans-syndesmotic fractures. “Incorporating IntraFuse's proprietary FlexThread technology, the distal end of the implant is a flexible, intramedullary screw and the proximal end is a rigid, high-strength intramedullary rod,” the company says. After being inserted into the fibula, the implant’s rigid rod portion spans and supports the fracture and the flexible screw portion bends as needed to thread into the intramedullary canal, it says. “With internal screw fixation on one side of the fracture and cross screw fixation through the rod on the other side of the fracture, proper bone alignment and length can be maintained during the healing period,” it says.
