The CrossTie™ Intraosseous Fixation System is indicated to aid in the fixation of fractures, fusions, and osteotomies of the toes, such as hammertoe, claw toe, mallet toe and inter-digital fusions.
Device Story
CrossTie™ Intraosseous Fixation System is a one-piece, press-fit implant for toe bone fixation/fusion. Device features proximal and distal barbs for secure placement and a distal hole for optional joint reduction or suture-assisted closure. Used by surgeons in clinical settings; implanted via reamer and driver. Implant provides mechanical stability to bone segments during healing. Benefit includes secure fixation for toe deformities and osteotomies.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Static and fatigue performance testing was conducted on the system with and without the use of suture for closure. Cyclic testing demonstrated the device withstands expected loads, confirming equivalence to the predicate.
Technological Characteristics
Implant grade PEEK; one-piece construct; proximal and distal barb-type features; distal hole for joint reduction/suture passage. Instruments include reamer and driver. Mechanical fixation principle.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients requiring fixation of fractures, fusions, and osteotomies of the toes, including hammertoe, claw toe, mallet toe, and inter-digital fusions.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A smooth or threaded metallic bone fixation fastener is a device intended to be implanted that consists of a stiff wire segment or rod made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum and stainless steel, and that may be smooth on the outside, fully or partially threaded, straight or U-shaped; and may be either blunt pointed, sharp pointed, or have a formed, slotted head on the end. It may be used for fixation of bone fractures, for bone reconstructions, as a guide pin for insertion of other implants, or it may be implanted through the skin so that a pulling force (traction) may be applied to the skeletal system.

Dear Mr. Hartdegen:
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. 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.

### Substantial Equivalence:
The modified fixation system has the following similarities to the previously cleared predicate device:
- Same Operating Principle O
- O Same Technology
- Same Intended Use O
Design verification analysis was performed on the CrossTie™ Intraosseous Fixation System as a result of the risk analysis and product requirements. All analyses were verified to meet the required acceptance criteria. The subject device is the same as the predicate device (K141857),

with respect to materials, indications and technical characteristics. The only noted difference from the predicate device is the surgical technique allows the surgeon to use the suture for closure after joint reduction. This minor difference is insignificant in the safety and efficacy of the devices. In summary, the subject device described in this submission is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
### Indications for Use:
The indications for use are the same as the previously cleared indications for use for the CrossTie™ Intraosseous Fixation System: The CrossTie™ Intraosseous Fixation System is indicated to aid in the fixation of fractures, fusions, and osteotomies of the toes, such as hammertoe, claw toe, mallet toe and inter-digital fusions.
### Device Description:
The CrossTie™ Intraosseous Fixation System is manufactured from implant grade PEEK. The implant is a one-piece construct designed to be press-fit into the intraosseous space of two adjoining bones to aid in fusion. The proximal and distal ends of the implant have barb-type features for securing the implant in position. The implant also features a hole in the distal end of the implant to be used at the surgeon's discretion to assist in joint reduction. Furthermore, the surgeon may optionally elect to use suture that passes through the distal end of the implant for closure.
The instruments needed for implantation consist of a reamer for implant site preparation and a driver for insertion. All associated instruments are Class I.
The design features of the CrossTie™ Intraosseous Fixation System are summarized below:
- O Implant Grade PEEK
- O Sized to accommodate patient anatomy
- Solid, one piece construction for all devices O
- Proximal and distal barb-like features for secure placement O
- Hole to optionally aid in joint reduction O
### Performance Testing:
The CrossTie™ Intraosseous Fixation System utilizes materials and has design features that are the same as the predicate device. Evaluation of the system with and without utilizing the suture for closure demonstrates that the subject device is substantially equivalent in static and fatigue performance compared to the predicate device. The implant has been cyclic tested with and without suture to demonstrate that the device can withstand the expected loads.
