Smith+Nephew (LSE:SN, NYSE:SNN), the global medical technology company, today announces the launch of its TOTAL ANKLE Patient-Matched Guides, giving surgeons a predictable and efficient option to help plan and perform total ankle replacement (TAR) procedures. Engineered using 3D Systems’ VSP® surgical planning workflows, all-in-one TOTAL ANKLE Patient-Matched Guides are designed to achieve a precise patient fit using fluoroscopic alignment cues and efficient instrumentation, and provide accuracy to plan.1-8

Total ankle replacements are historically uncommon, preferring non-surgical techniques or arthrodesis due to the complexity of the procedure that results from differing patient anatomies. However, the global market trajectory (CAGR of 6.98% through 2031)9 is being bolstered by the rising prevalence of osteoarthritis in adults and influenced by growing patient preference for joint preservation and restoration.

Smith+Nephew’s TOTAL ANKLE Patient-Matched Guides are poised to support the growing TAR market segment due to three key benefits:

  • Predictability in the OR: Integrated fluoroscopic cues, guide pins, and cut slot make the guide an all-in-one instrument.
  • Accuracy: Fluoroscopic alignment cues and standard instrumentation transfer pins are designed to provide accuracy to plan.3,6.10,11
  • User Friendly System: Guide is designed to provide tactile feedback with medial arm wrap and precise patient fit.1,2,12,13

Smith+Nephew partnered with South Carolina-based 3D Systems to help design and manufacture the TOTAL ANKLE Patient-Matched Guides. With more than 25 years of experience and FDA-cleared VSP surgical planning workflows, the company’s solutions have supported more than 175,000 patient-specific cases with the goal of improving outcomes and the overall patient experience.

TOTAL ANKLE Patient-Matched Guides are compatible with chamfer talar implants for Smith+Nephew’s CADENCE◊ Total Ankle System and SALTO TALARIS◊ Total Ankle Prosthesis, offering surgeons versatility of implant choice for their patients.

“We are excited to unveil our new TOTAL ANKLE Patient-Matched Guides for total ankle replacement - a breakthrough to help transform the way healthcare professionals approach surgical precision and improved patient outcomes”, said Mark McMahan, Vice President of Marketing, Global Trauma & Extremities at Smith+Nephew. This advanced system is designed to offer unparalleled efficiency and accuracy, ultimately enhancing the overall experience for both surgeons and patients. The launch of our TOTAL ANKLE Patient-Matched Guides further strengthens our position as a leader in the total ankle replacement market segment.”
