MiRus has officially introduced the ATLAS™ MoRe® Foot and Ankle Plating System to the U.S. market, representing a groundbreaking advancement in the treatment of foot and ankle conditions. This innovative system features the thinnest foot and ankle plate available, with a remarkable 1.0mm thickness, all thanks to the utilization of a molybdenum-rhenium alloy, ensuring exceptional performance while minimizing its footprint.

The MoRe® alloy, an exclusive molybdenum rhenium superalloy designed for medical implants, offers an unparalleled blend of strength, ductility, longevity, and biocompatibility. This extraordinary superalloy empowers the creation of a new generation of smaller, more robust, and biocompatible implants, promising reduced disruption to soft tissues, accelerated recovery, and superior outcomes for patients.

Andy Bishop, VP of Sales- Extremities, expressed, "The ATLAS™ MoRe® Foot and Ankle Plating System represents a significant milestone in our ongoing commitment to developing top-tier products that enhance patient outcomes and offer surgeons premium solutions. This system is truly world-class and aligns with our dedication to low-profile, fatigue-resistant, and biocompatible implants."

Renowned Orthopaedic Surgeon Selene Parekh MD, MBA, from the Rothman Orthopaedic Institute, commented, "MiRus is introducing an exciting new metal alloy to the foot and ankle domain, much like it has already done in the spine market. With the MoRe Rhenium-based superalloy, they are delivering products that surpass current alloys used in foot and ankle procedures, ranging from titanium to cobalt chromium. MoRe enables surgeons to employ thinner and stronger implants with inherent antibacterial properties, reducing the introduction of metal ions into patients' serum. This all points towards improved patient experiences and outcomes."

Lew Schon, MD FACS FAAOS, Director of Orthopedic Innovation at The Institute for Foot and Ankle Reconstruction at Mercy, enthused, "The MiRus Atlas plating system introduces the slimmest plates and the highest contourability, thanks to the MoRe alloy (Molybdenum-Rhenium alloy). Finally, we have plates for the foot and ankle that are stronger, thinner, and more flexible, revolutionizing our approach to cases. We are incredibly excited to introduce these game-changing innovations."

The company anticipates a full market release of the ATLAS™ MoRe® Foot and Ankle Plating System in the fourth quarter of 2023.
