Two FDA Clearances for Medicrea New Specialized Components for Pediatric Deformity

October 21, 2016

Medicrea has received two 510(k) clearances from the FDA for its PASS XS posterior fixation and LigaPASS XS band connector components designed to address pediatric spinal deformities in small stature patients.

The extra-small ‘XS’ extension of the PASS and LigaPASS technology will enable surgeons to treat pediatric patients using around 40 percent less implant volume in each surgery.

Medicrea is projecting the first U.S. surgery with the PASS XS and LigaPASS XS components in early November. — Cynthia Jessup
