Treace Announces First Surgical Cases Utilizing the SpeedPlate™ MicroQuad™ Implant
17 December 2024 - 12:30AM
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 utilizing SpeedPlate™ MicroQuad™
implants.
The MicroQuad™ implant expands upon the broad
utility of the SpeedPlate™ platform, which is designed for fast
titanium compression fixation. The MicroQuad™ implant has a unique
anatomic design with multiple points of fixation on each side of
the joint to deliver dynamic compression with rotational stability
through a one-inch incision for compatibility with minimally
invasive techniques.
“The MicroQuad™ implant builds on the success of
our proprietary SpeedPlate™ technology to provide a highly
differentiated solution for fast, stable fixation designed to meet
the growing surgeon and patient demand for minimally invasive
Lapiplasty® and Adductoplasty® approaches,” said John T. Treace,
CEO, Founder and Board Member of Treace. “We look forward to
further expanding surgeon access to the MicroQuad™ implant as we
move into full market release within the first half of 2025.”
William T. DeCarbo, DPM, of Greater Pittsburgh
Foot & Ankle Center and a member of Treace’s Surgeon Advisory
Board, who performed initial cases with the SpeedPlate™ MicroQuad™
implant, commented, “The MicroQuad™ implant takes the SpeedPlate™
system to a new level with an anatomic contour and additional
rotational stability that gives me the clinical confidence I can
deliver robust fixation through a small incision that patients
desire.”

About Treace Medical Concepts
Treace 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
