A surgeon-led rethink of patella fractures launches Endeavor Orthopaedics. A failure rate of up to 40% in patella fractures was not acceptable to Dr. Brent Norris. “I had an epiphany in October of 2011. After a couple of challenging patella fracture cases, I realized, I was only addressing part of the extensor mechanism injury. By only treating the bony element of the injury with cannulated screws and orthopedic wire, we were not fully addressing the soft tissue component of the injury or more importantly the forces of the extensor mechanism.” In this week’s MedTech Jam Session with Chris & Mike D, check out the rest of the story from Dr. Norris and Endeavor CEO Greg Parranto as they discuss how they are solving, not just patella fractures, but how their platform will soon expand to treat other challenging avulsion injuries. Another great story of a surgeon with the courage to build next-generation solutions to benefit patient care.
