PROVIDING THE ADVANCED ORTHOPEDIC SOLUTIONS OF TOMORROW, TODAY
RevOrtho is focused on advancing orthopedic technology in order to better protect and preserve biology. Our technology is designed to improve in preservation of bone tissue, venous and arterial systems, and soft tissue, in order to improve performance of equipment and implants, as compared to prior technology. We also focus on providing individualized solutions to complex orthopedic challenges through innovation, allowing a wide range of implantation options. We have intellectual property for novel solutions over a wide scope of orthopedic sub-specialities and other applications.
NEWS
THE FUTURE OF HIP PRESERVATION IS HERE
January 10, 2017
Our revolutionary patented system for Modular Hip Resurfacing (MHR) has biological and biomechanical advantages over prior Hip Resurfacing Arthroplasty (HRA) systems. Numerous MHR implantation options allow scalable fixation for individualized patient applications.
Existing HRA systems put the nutrient arteries to the femoral head and femoral neck at high risk. Protection of the hip nutrient arteries is vital for success in HRA and for minimizing risk of postoperative aseptic loosening and avascular necrosis (AVN). Our MHR system instruments and implants protect both the nutrient arteries and bone of the femoral head and femoral neck. Our system allows uncemented application to eliminate cement thermal necrosis. Additionally, there are multiple biomechanical advantages to the MHR system. These include the ability to provide lateral fixation and protect against femoral neck fracture, and also to allow increased construct support which may especially benefit women and provide a HRA option. Furthermore, MHR provides the capability to individually address variable bone quality and AVN Ficat stages, eliminates femoral neck notching risk and retains a femoral head collar for construct support, and facilitates increased compression to along the implant-bone interface and porous undersurface. These advantages help to maximize biologic preservation intraoperatively and postoperatively to enhance operative outcomes over prior systems.

NEW PATELLOFEMORAL RESURFACING ARTHROPLASTY
August 20, 2017
A new patellofemoral resurfacing arthroplasty system is coming soon. Our patellofemoral resurfacing system is designed to better protect the native biology of the knee joint and allow uncemented implantation options. It is also designed to encourage osseous-integration with between the system components and underlying bone tissue. More details will be coming soon.
