Designed collaboratively with the operative surgeon for each patient’s unique surgical goals, the Axiom PSR System consistently delivers precision, accuracy, and efficiency for total ankle procedures. The all-metal resection guides, 3d printed at restor3d’s facility in Durham, NC, ensure ideal anatomic fit and exact placement of the pre-planned cut required to place the Kinos Axiom Total Ankle System Implants. The system’s streamlined design features are focused to reduce operative time during total ankle surgeries. “The Axiom PSR metal resection guides sit noticeably better on the bone and offer greater saw control compared to the historically polymer patient-specific instruments. The ability to place the PSR on the bone, confirm via x-ray and cut through the guide gives me greater confidence in reproducible cuts for Total Ankle procedures and reduces time for me in the OR,” said John Lewis, MD of Louisville Orthopaedic Clinic in Louisville, Kentucky.

The Axiom PSR guides incorporate a proprietary surface topography to ensure added stability at the bone contact interface. Additional benefits of the all-metal resection guides include integrated radiographic markers for fluoroscopic visualization and a limited footprint which reduces soft tissue disruption.

Brian Garvey, SVP of Product Development at restor3d commented, “it is very exciting to work on the team that obtained the first 510(k) clearance for an all-metal patient-specific arthroplasty instrument system. The convergence of our inhouse 3d printing capabilities, advanced engineering, and clinically focused research teams allows us to provide the next generation patient-specific devices. The Axiom PSR is an excellent addition to the Kinos Axiom Total Ankle portfolio, while also laying the groundwork for additional patient-specific development projects that we intend to launch in the near future.”

The Axiom PSR is entering an initial release in April with full availability in June 2023.

Integrating TIDAL Technology’s interconnected porosity, the Axiom PSR System is the latest addition to restor3d’s lower extremity portfolio, which features the Kinos Axiom Total Ankle System, TIDAL Osteotomy Wedge Systems and MTP Hemiarthroplasty System, and the mobile companion App for the r3id Personalized Surgery platform.
