OrthoXel’s Femoral Nailing System Gains FDA Clearance

The FDA granted OrthoXel 510(k) clearance for its Apex femoral nailing system, a fracture fixation device for the femur.

The system gives physicians numerous locking options, such as the patented OrthoXel micromotion for controlled axial movement, which offers torsional stability to encourage callus formation.

The device comes with additional locking options, such as rigid interlocking used for unstable proximal fractures in the femur.
