PLGA - Avoiding Secondary Operations
When we ask Clinicians "when should surgery be avoided in paediatric orthopaedics?". Most laugh and say "whenever possible!".
The new range of PLGA Bioretec Implants provide surgeons with just that opportunity to avoid secondary operations, along with reduced clinic times while still providing strong and active fixation without the adverse events and leftover material seen with older generation bioabsorbables.
