Treace Medical Announces Settlement of Lawsuit Again Fusion Orthopedics

PONTE VEDRA, Fla., March 03, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Treace Medical Concepts, Inc. (“Treace Medical” or the “Company”) (NasdaqGS: TMCI), a medical technology company driving a fundamental shift in the surgical treatment of hallux valgus (commonly known as bunions) jointly announces with Fusion Orthopedics, LLC (“Fusion Orthopedics”) that they have reached an amicable resolution of the litigation between the parties. Treace Medical filed the lawsuit on March 29, 2022 against Fusion Orthopedics in the United States District Court for the District of Arizona, alleging patent, trademark, and copyright infringement, as well as various unfair trade practices based on Fusion Orthopedics’ use, sale, and promotion of the Lapilock 4D Advanced Bunion Surgery, including false advertising and unfair competition. Fusion Orthopedics subsequently filed counterclaims against Treace Medical, requesting declaratory judgment of non-infringement and invalidity of the patents, declaratory judgment of invalidity of Treace Medical’s LAPIPLASTY trademark, as well as various unfair trade practices based on Treace Medical’s use, sale, and promotion of the Lapiplasty 3D Bunion Correction, including counterclaims of false descriptions and false advertising. In March 2023, the parties entered into an agreement to settle this matter.

While the terms of the settlement are confidential, Treace Medical is pleased with the outcome.
