The GIRO™ Growth Modulation System is intended as a temporary implant to aid in the correction of the angle of growth of long bones by modulating growth of the physis in pediatric (child and adolescent) patients. It is indicated for the following conditions: - [ Femur and tibia: varus, valgus, flexion, or extension deformities of the knee. - □ Humerus: valgus or varus deformities of the elbow. - □ Radius and ulna: flexion or extension deformities of the wrist. - □ Ankle: varus, valgus or plantar flexion deformities of the ankle. - □ Limb length discrepancy of the femur and tibia.

The GIRO™ Growth Modulation System is a tether device used for quided growth and deformity correction. It includes two couplings linked via a flexible cable and anchored to the bone via screws and bi-cortical posts. By tethering the growth plate, angular deformities can be corrected. The implants are manufactured in medical grade 316L stainless steel (ASTM F138) and offered in two sizes: 4.5 and 6.0.

The WishBone Medical Guided Growth System is designed for the express and sole purpose of redirecting the angle of growth of long bone(s). This is useful for gradually correcting angular deformities in growing children. Specific conditions/diseases for which the device will be indicated include: valgus, varus or flexion, extension deformities of the knee (femur and/or tibia), valgus, varus or plantar flexion deformities of the ankle, valgus or varus deformities of the elbow (humerus), radial or ulnar deviation, flexion or extension deformities of the wrist (radius).

The WishBone Medical Guided Growth System is intended to be used for the express and sole purpose of redirecting the angle of growth of long bone(s). This is useful for gradually correcting angular deformities in growing children. The WishBone Medical Guided Growth System implants are made of a 316-stainless steel material in compliance of ASTM F138, and Ti-6Al-4V Titanium alloy compliant to ASTM F136. 316 stainless steel and Ti-Al-4V are biocompatible materials that are readily available and commonly used in implanted medical devices.

The Guided Growth Plate System Plus is intended for redirecting the growth of long bones. It is indicated for gradually correcting angular growth deformities in growing children. Specific conditions/diseases for which the device will be indicated include: valgus, varus or flexion, extension deformities of the knee (femur and/or tibia); valgus, varus, or plantar flexion deformities of the ankle; valgus or varus deformities of the elbow (humerus), and radial or ulnar deviation, flexion or extension deformities of the wrist (radius).

The Subject new 3.5mm thread diameter screw is a gamma extension of the existing screws (thread Ø4.5mm), components of the predicate Guided Growth Plate System Plus (K172183). The Subject device is a 3.5mm thread diameter screw, available in three lengths and manufactured by the same material (Ti6Al4V), as the 4.5mm diameter gamma screws, included in the predicate Guided Growth Plate System Plus (K172183).

Specific conditions/diseases for which the device will be indicated include: valgus, varus or flexion, extension deformities of the knee (femur and/or tibia); valgus, varus, or plantar flexion deformities of the ankle; valgus or varus deformities of the elbow (humerus), and radial or ulnar deviation, flexion or extension deformities of the wrist (radius).

The Guided Growth Plate System Plus is designed for the gradual correction of pediatric congenital as well as acquired deformities in both the upper and lower extremities, provided that the physis (growth plates) are not fused. It consists of different sizes of eight-Plate and quad-Plate plus with different cannulated and solid screw options. The plates feature a contoured waist and low profile for pediatric usage. There is a center hole in the plates for a temporary guide pin to be implanted, in order to aid application and removal of the plate. The plates are attached to the external surface of the bone by screws, which are not locked to the plate but rather they are allowed to swivel and diverge in their position as bone growth occurs. The implant acts like a flexible hinge, permitting growth at the growth plate to gradually straighten the limb.

The Guided Growth System is designed for the gradual correction of pediatric deformities in both the upper and lower extremities. The device can be used for correction of congenital and acquired deformities provided that the physis (growth plates) are not fused. The plates feature a contoured waist and low profile for pediatric usage. There is a center hole in the plate for a temporary guide pin to be implanted to ensure accurate application of the plate. The plates are attached to the external surface of the bone over the growth plate by two or four screws. These screws are not locked to the plate, but rather are allowed to swivel and diverge in their position as bone growth occurs. The implant acts like a flexible hinge, permitting growth at the growth plate to gradually straighten the limb. Immediately after implantation, the patient is allowed mobility and weight bearing. The plates and screws are made from implant quality stainless steel conforming to ASTM F-138.
