Mg Alloy DrillPins in Hammertoe Deformity Correction

"This is a first-in-human clinical feasibility study of a novel absorbable magnesium-zinc-calcium alloy DrillPin (RemeOs™) for internal fixation during surgical correction of hammertoe deformities in adult patients. The implant is investigational, not CE-marked, and represents an alternative to conventional stainless steel or titanium K-wires commonly used in toe correction surgery.~The RemeOs™ DrillPin is designed to provide mechanical stability during osteotomy healing and gradually resorbs over 2-3 years, potentially eliminating the need for secondary implant removal.~The study focuses on evaluating safety, performance, and implant resorption using standardized clinical and radiographic assessments. The DrillPin is made from the same magnesium alloy (ZX00) as the CE-marked RemeOs™ Screw, which has demonstrated clinical safety and performance in prior applications."
