ENGLEWOOD, Colo. / Nov 14, 2023 / Business Wire / Paragon 28, Inc. (NYSE: FNA) is pleased to announce the launch of its BEAST™ Cortical Fibers which provide an osteoinductive porous structure for cellular attachment and an osteoinductive potential to aid in cellular differentiation and bone formation. These loose cortical fibers are engineered to complement specific surgical applications in the foot and ankle and are flexible upon hydration allowing for application even in extremely challenging fusion locations.
