Treace Announces First Cases Utilizing RedPoint™ Intelliguide™ Patient Specific Instrumentation with the Adductoplasty® System for Correction of Midfoot Deformities
05 December 2024 - 8:15AM
Treace Medical Concepts, Inc. (“Treace” or the “Company”)
(NasdaqGS: TMCI), a medical technology company driving a
fundamental shift in the surgical treatment of bunions and related
midfoot deformities through its flagship Lapiplasty® and
Adductoplasty® Procedures, today announced the successful
completion of the first cases combining IntelliGuide™ PSI
technology with the Adductoplasty® System for a CT-based, patient
specific correction personalized to the patient’s unique midfoot
deformity.
IntelliGuide™ PSI, incorporating RedPoint™
technology, is the first and only patient-specific cut guide system
available for correction of bunion and/or midfoot deformities in
the U.S. IntelliGuide™ PSI provides an AI-enabled software approach
to convert a patient’s CT-scan to a pre-operative surgical plan and
produce a 3D-printed cut guide specific to the patient’s deformity
for efficient and personalized intra-operative guidance. It is
estimated that midfoot deformities, such as metatarsus adductus,
may occur in up to 30% of bunion patients.1,2
Treace has now initiated a limited market
release of IntelliGuide™ PSI for the Adductoplasty® Procedure and
plans to expand surgeon access of IntelliGuide™ for both the
Lapiplasty® and Adductoplasty® procedures progressively over the
coming months with full market release expected within the first
half of 2025.
“IntelliGuide™ PSI further advances our market
leadership position in the surgical management of bunion and
midfoot deformities, extending the established benefits of PSI
personalized approaches to our Lapiplasty® and Adductoplasty®
Procedures,” said John T. Treace, CEO, Founder and Board Member of
Treace. “We look forward to further building out our ecosystem of
enabling digital technologies as part of our strategy to provide a
comprehensive portfolio of bunion and related midfoot solutions to
address the evolving needs of our surgeon customers and
patients.”
Eric Kuhlman, DPM of Center for Spine &
Orthopedics in Denver, who performed an initial IntelliGuide™
Adductoplasty® case commented, “This technology is going to
revolutionize the way that I approach treating patients with bunion
and related midfoot deformities. The virtual planning process
helped me fully visualize the complex three-dimensional metatarsus
adductus midfoot correction before stepping foot in the OR and the
3D-printed cut guides added a new level of intra-operative
precision, efficiency, and confidence to the procedure. Just as PSI
has advanced other areas of orthopedics, I expect IntelliGuide™ PSI
to rapidly expand our understanding and treatment of these common,
yet challenging foot deformities.”

About Treace Medical ConceptsTreace
Medical Concepts, Inc. is a medical technology company with the
goal of advancing the standard of care for the surgical management
of bunion and related midfoot deformities. Bunions are complex
3-dimensional deformities that originate from an unstable joint in
the middle of the foot and affect approximately 67 million
Americans, of which Treace estimates 1.1 million are annual
surgical candidates. Treace has pioneered and patented the
Lapiplasty® 3D Bunion Correction® System – a combination of
instruments, implants, and surgical methods designed to surgically
correct all three planes of the bunion deformity and secure the
unstable joint, addressing the root cause of the bunion and helping
patients get back to their active lifestyles. To further support
the needs of bunion patients, Treace has introduced its
Adductoplasty® Midfoot Correction System, designed for reproducible
surgical correction of midfoot deformities. The Company continues
to expand its footprint in the foot and ankle market with the
introduction of its SpeedPlate™ Rapid Compression Implants, an
innovative fixation platform with broad versatility across
Lapiplasty® and Adductoplasty® procedures, as well as other common
bone fusion procedures of the foot. For more information, please
