X-Bolt Orthopedics has announced the completion of the first U.S. implant using its Pro-X1 trochanteric nailing system.
This is X-Bolt's flagship U.S. launch, signifying a step forward in applying X-Bolt's hip-fracture treatments across the U.S., according to an Oct. 10 news release.
The Pro-X1 system offers stronger anchorage and rotational stability in osteoporotic hip-fracture fixation compared to traditional screw-based methods.
The nailing system first earned FDA clearance in 2023, with the surgery in Florida marking the start of its limited commercial release.
