US patent approval related to Episealer® Talus for Episurf Medical
Episurf Medical (NASDAQ: EPIS B) has received another Notice of Allowance from the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO). The patent, entitled “Surgical Kit for Repair of Articular Surfaces in the Talocrural Joint Including Surgical Saw Guide”, covers Episurf Medical’s ankle implant Episealer® Talus and related surgical tools including a novel osteotomi guide for surgical access to the difficult to reach talar bone. This is the first approval in this patent family.
“Episurf’s implant technology has been adapted to the ankle joint through the development of Episealer® Talus. We already have IP protection for the Episealer® Talus technology. However, access to the talus bone is a specific challenge in treatment of ankle lesions and Episurf is now protecting a novel solution to facilitate ankle surgery”, comments Katarina Flodström, CRO & Head of IP, Episurf Medical.
