Device Story
AxSOS 3 Ti is an internal bone fixation system comprising anatomically contoured monoaxial locking plates, screws (locking, cortical, cancellous), blind screws, and auxiliary components. This submission introduces a Variable Angle Extension Arm connector assembly for periprosthetic fractures. The system is used by surgeons in clinical settings to stabilize bone fragments. The device is implanted to provide mechanical support during the bone healing process. The extension arm is affixed to existing plates using a blind screw and secured to bone fragments with a locking screw. The system provides structural stability to facilitate fracture repair and patient recovery.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Bench testing only. MR compatibility testing performed per ASTM F2052, F2213, F2182, and F2119.
Technological Characteristics
Materials: Titanium alloy (ASTM F-136) for plates/screws; Variable Angle Extension Arm frame is anodized titanium (Ti-6Al-4V, ASTM F136) with Co-Cr inlay (ASTM F1537). System includes monoaxial locking plates, screws, and extension arms. Non-powered, mechanical fixation device. Sterilization: Sterile or non-sterile.
Indications for Use
Indicated for long bone fracture fixation in patients with diaphyseal, metaphyseal, epiphyseal, extra- and intra-articular fractures, non-unions, malunions, osteotomies, and periprosthetic fractures of the femur and proximal tibia. Includes pediatric patients for diaphyseal and metaphyseal areas of long bones, and fixation of the scapula and pelvis for specific plates. Applicable to normal and osteopenic bone.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
Single/multiple component metallic bone fixation appliances and accessories are devices intended to be implanted consisting of one or more metallic components and their metallic fasteners. The devices contain a plate, a nail/plate combination, or a blade/plate combination that are made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum, stainless steel, and titanium, that are intended to be held in position with fasteners, such as screws and nails, or bolts, nuts, and washers. These devices are used for fixation of fractures of the proximal or distal end of long bones, such as intracapsular, intertrochanteric, intercervical, supracondylar, or condylar fractures of the femur; for fusion of a joint; or for surgical procedures that involve cutting a bone. The devices may be implanted or attached through the skin so that a pulling force (traction) may be applied to the skeletal system.

Dear Saad Attiyah:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmp/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803) for devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see

### Description
The AxSOS 3 Ti system (also referred to as "AxSOS 3 Ti Locking Plate System") is a system used for internal fixation applications. The system includes anatomically contoured monoaxial locking plates, screws, blind screws, and auxiliary components. The plates have been designed with holes that can accommodate either locking or non-locking screws, holes for suture and/or Kirschner wires (K-wires). The screws come in 3 types (locking, cortical, and cancellous) and are available in several different diameters and lengths. Implants can be delivered sterile or nonsterile. The various plates and screws are manufactured from titanium alloy (ASTM F-136).
This traditional 510(k) submission is intended to introduce an additional component into the AxSOS 3 Ti System. The Variable Angle Extension Arm connector is an assembly made from an anodized titanium frame (Ti-6Al-4V, ASTM F136) and Co-Cr inlay (ASTM F1537, CoCr28Mo6). These preassembled Variable Angle Extension Arms can be affixed to the previously cleared Distal Lateral Femur Plates, the 5.0 mm narrow waisted compression plates, or the 5.0 mm broad waisted compression plates. The Variable Angle Extension Arms are affixed to the plate using the 4.0 mm blind screw and use a 4.0 mm locking screw to secure it into the desired targeted location of the fragment. These Variable Angle Extension Arms are used for periprosthetic fractures.
#### Indications for Use

and the pelvis.
#### Summary of Technologies
A comparison of the systems demonstrated the subject AxSOS 3 Ti system is substantially equivalent to the previously cleared AxSOS 3 Ti system (K172350) with regards to intended use, design, and operational principles.
### Non-Clinical Testing
Bench testing was conducted comparing the cleared plates and screws with the Variable Angle Extension Arms against the predicate and reference devices.
Testing was performed to determine the compatibility of the system in a MR environment. These tests included an assessment of:
- Magnetically Induced Displacement Force per ASTM F2052 ●
- 0 Magnetically Induced Torque per ASTM F2213
- Heating by RF Fields per ASTM F2182 ●
- Image Artifacts per ASTM F2119
Testing demonstrated that the subject device is substantially equivalent to the marketed predicate device.
## Animal Testing
Animal testing was not required for this submission.
## Clinical Testing
Clinical testing was not required for this submission.
#### Conclusion
Documentation is provided demonstrating the AxSOS 3 Ti System is substantially equivalent to the predicate and reference devices in of design, indications for use, technological characteristics, and performance characteristics.
