Beyond Metal: How PEKK Is Redefining Orthopaedic Implant Design
Traditional orthopaedic implants have largely been built around metallic alloys for decades. Titanium, cobalt chrome, and stainless steel transformed modern reconstruction and remain highly successful across many applications. But as orthopaedics evolves alongside advanced imaging, digital planning, additive manufacturing, and biologic understanding, the limitations of traditional metals are becoming increasingly relevant. This is one of the reasons materials such as OsteoFab

Carpal Tunnel Surgery Is Moving Out of the Operating Room
Incisionless ultrasound-guided surgery is redefining how carpal tunnel syndrome is treated across the United States. What was once considered a traditional operating theatre procedure is now increasingly being performed in procedure rooms, ambulatory surgery centres (ASCs), and office-based environments using real-time ultrasound guidance and ultra-incisionless techniques. At Sovereign USA, we believe this shift represents one of the most important changes in modern hand surg

OsteoFab® PEKK: Custom, Metal-Free Implants
OsteoFab® PEKK implants replicate the natural porosity of bone, combining strength and biological integration in a fully metal-free design. Complex skeletal defects of the skull, face and extremities challenge even the most experienced reconstructive surgeons. Traditional titanium plates and meshes can restore form, yet they introduce limitations. Metallic implants may cause imaging artefacts, interfere with radiotherapy planning and can become sources of infection or thermal

Metal Sensitivity Testing. The Insight Driving Safer Implant Selection.
Personalised Protection: Why Metal Sensitivity Testing Is Becoming Standard in Orthopaedic Surgery Metal implants have transformed modern orthopaedics, restoring movement, relieving pain and improving quality of life for millions of patients worldwide. But for a small yet significant number, the material that is meant to heal can become a hidden source of harm. As implant technologies evolve, clinicians are increasingly recognising the role of metal hypersensitivity in persis
