Orthopedic surgical robot developer Think Surgical has earned clearance from the FDA to use its Tmini miniature robotic system alongside the Freedom Total Knee, Freedom Titan Knee and Freedom Primary PCK Systems from Maxx Orthopedics.
Think Surgical also just secured a collaboration agreement with Waldemar Link GmbH & Co. to use Tmini with the LinkSymphoKnee.
The Freedom Total Knee, Freedom Titan Knee and Freedom Primary PCK Systems have been added to Think Surgical's proprietary data bank of implant modules for use with the open platform version of the Tmini System, according to a Nov. 19 news release.
The Freedom systems can accommodate individual patient anatomy, potentially leading to improved alignment and positioning for long-term success, according to the release. In clinical studies, they have demonstrated a 10-year survivorship rate of 98.3%.
They offer an enhanced range of motion to help improve functional outcomes after surgery.
