Tripho TCP

Tripho TCP is a porous synthetic ceramic, based in Tricalcium Phosphate (b-TCP).
The TCP component, resorbs quickly and allows the ceramic to have properties which facilitate excellent osteointegration.

Product Features

Indications

Tripho TCP is intended to be use a bone void filler or augmentation material for bone defects that are not intrinsic to the stability of the bony structure:

• Fractures with bone defect
•  Vertebral arthrodesis
• Tibial Osteotomy
• Total Knee and Hip Revision
• Spine Surgery

Tripho can be mixed with autograft, bone marrow, blood
