Immediate access to certified titanium implants designed for high mechanical load and biological stability.
Cardiovascular diseases represent the leading cause of mortality in Greece. Over the past decade, public university hospitals (such as AHEPA in Thessaloniki and Attikon in Athens) along with specialized centers like the Onassis Cardiac Surgery Center have experienced a significant paradigm shift. Traditional wire cerclage, once the gold standard for median sternotomy closure, is increasingly being replaced by rigid sternal fixation systems.
For high-risk cohorts—specifically geriatric patients presenting with advanced osteoporosis, diabetic patients prone to deep sternal wound infections (DSWI), or patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)—rigid internal fixation using medical titanium plates delivers superior primary stability. Clinical studies indicate that rigid plating reduces bone micro-motion by up to 90%, thereby mitigating the risk of sternal dehiscence, accelerating osteosynthesis, and substantially lowering post-operative recovery timelines.
In the context of the Greek National Health System (ESY), hospital purchasing boards (DYPE) evaluate cost-effectiveness through clinical and financial dimensions. While the initial procurement cost of titanium plate systems is higher than steel wire cerclage, the total cost of care is lower. Sternal dehiscence leading to mediastinitis costs health systems tens of thousands of Euros per patient due to extended ICU stays and reconstructive surgeries.
By introducing high-quality orthopedic implants with strict EU compliance, Osteora Medical Devices Co., Ltd. enables local distributors to present compelling, clinical-evidence-based tenders to Greek healthcare institutions.
Precision-engineered titanium systems addressing anatomical anomalies and severe chest wall trauma.
A premier manufacturer dedicated to trauma, spine, and joint reconstruction technologies.
Founded in 2016, Osteora has established a strong reputation in the global orthopedic industry through continuous innovation and strict quality control standards. Supporting integrated production, assembly, and testing operations, the company boasts 8 years of export experience and 12 years of industry expertise, fostering long-term partnerships with distributors and hospital networks across Europe, Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and South America.
An end-to-end documentation of our production pipeline, highlighting testing and verification systems.
Operating in the Greek healthcare environment requires strict adherence to European Union regulations. As of May 2021, all orthopedic and thoracic implants imported and distributed within the EU must comply with the Medical Device Regulation (EU MDR 2017/745).
Osteora ensures local Greek distributors receive comprehensive support for EOF registration (National Organization for Medicines). Each sternal locking plate, rib plate, and spine fusion cage carries complete CE certifications, biocompatibility verification files (ISO 10993), and mechanical wear certificates.
Osteora's sternal fixation systems are specifically optimized for anatomical variants common in Mediterranean demographics. Our R&D team works closely with clinical research organizations to design implants that fit varying thoracic shapes and bone densities.
Whether addressing post-sternotomy stabilization after complex coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) or correcting pectus excavatum via funnel chest orthopedic systems, our configurations prioritize low-profile, ergonomic geometries to prevent tissue irritation.

The future of sternal closure lies in dynamic stiffness matching. Current titanium systems, while exceptionally strong, are stiffer than human bone, which can sometimes lead to localized stress shielding. Osteora's engineering pipeline is currently testing hybrid PEEK-Titanium systems. These composite implants merge the excellent tensile properties of titanium locking screws with the elastic modulus of PEEK, closely matching natural human cortical bone.
Simultaneously, we are developing integrated 3D modeling pipelines to provide patient-specific implants (PSI) for complex thoracic reconstructions following bone tumor resections. Through digital design, Greek clinical centers will soon be able to upload CT scans and receive tailor-made, 3D-printed sternal replacement constructs within highly efficient timeframes.
