heracure - Bioresorbable Bone Substitute Material
Ready-to-use, synthetic, osteoconductive and bioresorbable bone substitute material to support the bone healing process
Effectiveness, Control and Safety in Bone Healing
Distinguished by its unique mode of action, BONEPACE Technology, heracure provides control and safety throughout the surgical procedure and healing process of bone defects.
BONEPACE Technology
With a composition based on a high share of alpha-tricalcium phosphate, heracure undergoes a crystallization process upon contact with body fluids, transforming into its bone-mineral like state, as the highly bioactive, calcium-deficient hydroxyapatite.
Quickly recognized by the host bone like its own tissue, BONEPACE Technology supports natural regeneration and offers effective osteointegration, while delivering predictable outcomes. The resorption of heracure and new bone regrowth occur simultaneously and in a controlled manner, thus eliminating risk of new defects forming. heracure adapts perfectly to the body’s natural pace of bone formation, ensuring predictable and effective healing.
Areas of Application
heracure is intended for filling non-infected and non-load bearing defects in a multitude of orthopaedic and trauma cases, including:
- metaphyseal bone defect fractures, e.g. tibia, radius and humerus fractures
- after removal or replacement of osteosynthesis implants
- after resection of benign tumors and cysts
- to support the fixation of osteosynthesis implants, e.g. bone screws
- osteotomy
- long-bone non-union, critical bone defects
- acetabular voids and revisions
The heracure Product Portfolio at a Glance
The heracure portfolio includes heracure one, an injectable ready-to-use bone substitute material supplied in prefilled syringes, and heracure 3D, a range of 3D scaffolds available in multiple shapes and sizes.
