Metallic osteotomy fusion cages are implantable devices placed between cut bone ends to stabilize and promote healing after an osteotomy procedure. They help maintain proper alignment while the bone fuses, often used in long bones like the femur or tibia, as well as smaller bones such as the tarsal or carpal regions.
These devices are typically regulated as surgical implants, often requiring compliance with medical device standards for structural integrity and biocompatibility. They are generally supplied sterile and intended for single-use, though specific regulations may vary by jurisdiction and clinical application.
