The Equinoxe system’s platform design enables surgeons to convert from either a primary shoulder or fracture hemiarthroplasty to a reverse shoulder without stem removal. The primary system was launched in 2004, and the reverse system was introduced in 2007. Exactech has sold approximately 60,000 Equinoxe shoulders since 2004.
“We started Exactech 30 years ago in order to solve clinical challenges with designs that improve patient outcomes,” said William Petty, MD, executive chairman of Exactech and one of the company’s founders. “I am especially proud that one of our best examples of this, the Equinoxe system, has now helped thousands of patients get back to the activities of daily life.”
