Fracture Repair at the Speed of Light
What is IlluminOss?
IlluminOss is a Minimally invasive (MIS) Custom Conforming Intramedullary Balloon Implant.
Using a standard syringe, IlluminOss’ light activated, monomer is infused into the balloon, causing it to expand, fill and conform to the patient’s intramedullary canal. Only upon the activation of IlluminOss’ visible light source will the monomer infused balloon begin to cure.
Once cured, it can be drilled through an augmented with ancillary hardware.
