(“Treace” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: TMCI), a medical technology company driving a fundamental shift in the surgical treatment of hallux valgus (commonly known as bunions), announced today that it filed a lawsuit against Fusion Orthopedics, LLC, alleging infringement of multiple patents related to Treace’s Lapiplasty® 3D Bunion Correction™ system. Treace’s lawsuit also alleges copyright infringement, infringement of Treace’s trademark rights and unfair competition.

The United States Patent and Trademark Office, as well as Patent Offices around the globe, have recognized our innovative work and have granted us dozens of patents on these technologies. We have also secured trademarks to prevent others from capitalizing on Treace’s reputation and copyrights to protect improper copying of our work. Our intellectual property is a critical component in advancing bunion patient care.” Mr. Treace added, “We remain committed to protecting our proprietary technology and intellectual property, which drives our ability to continue to innovate solutions that benefit patients.”
