What is it indicated for?
Merries K-PHATE is intended to be packed into bony defects of the skeletal system ( extremities, spine, or pelvis) which are not intrinsic to the stability of the bony structure. These defects may be surgically created voids or from traumatic injury to the bone. The device gradually resorbs and is replaced with bone during the healing process. Rigid fixation techniques should be used in conjunction with this device.
Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
