Episealer® Talus
The Episealer Talus is an individualised resurfacing implant intended for use on either the medial or lateral talus. It aims to treat patients suffering from pain and reduced mobility due to focal osteochondral lesions in the talus. The Episealer technology restores the damaged joint surface in order to alleviate pain and quickly enables patients to recover joint mobility.
The Episealer Talus is available in a diameter of 15 mm.
The Episealer implant comes with an individualised drill guide, Epiguide, and a set of associated tools needed to ensure the best possible outcome. The guide is designed to attach perfectly onto the talus’ surface around the lesion. This provides a stable platform to support you during the drilling process.
The detailed preparation of the lesion site enables a simple and precise insertion of the implant at an exact angle and depth relative to the patient’s joint anatomy. This makes it possible to safe-guard against any part of the implant protruding, a situation which may jeopardise the final result.
The individualised Epiguide’s design is based on the patient’s MR and/or CT images.
