First-Ever Elbow Surgery with BioPoly Radial Head Implant

BioPoly Radial Head

BioPoly marked the first-ever elbow surgery utilizing its BioPoly Radial Head Implant. Unlike traditional metal implants, the BioPoly Radial Head Implant features a smooth titanium stem that allows for natural positioning, reducing joint stress.

Additionally, BioPoly’s proprietary synthetic cartilage articulates smoothly with native cartilage—preventing the damage often caused by metal alternatives. Notably, it is also the only nickel-free radial head implant on the market.

“This is a moment surgeons have been waiting for,” said Herb Schwartz, President & CEO of BioPoly. “Our unrivaled radial head implant is now available, and it directly addresses two of the biggest challenges in radial head arthroplasty: loosening and cartilage erosion.”
