Warsaw, Indiana, September 8, 2015 — Nextremity Solutions, Inc., a pure-play foot and ankle company, recently received 510(k) approval by the Food & Drug Administration to market its upcoming ArcusTM Staple System.
“We are excited about the recent 510(k) approval of Nextremity’s new ArcusTM Staple System. The unique design of our new staple generates excellent compression and is indicated for use throughout the foot and ankle.

We look forward to getting this product into the marketplace.”
The Nextremity Solutions Arcus™ Staple System is indicated for fixation of bone fractures, bone reconstruction, ligament, soft tissue and tendon.
