Surgeons at hospitals across the United States have completed multiple procedures with PC Fix following FDA 510(k) clearance

HERSHEY, Pa., Sept. 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Chest Wall Innovations, Inc., a medical device company dedicated to advancing the surgical treatment of chest wall injuries, today announced the commercial launch of its PC Fix Rib Fixation System. Since receiving FDA 510(k) clearance in April 2026, PC Fix has been used in multiple procedures at hospitals across the United States.

PC Fix is a rib fixation system available in both PEEK (polyether ether ketone) and titanium, giving surgeons the flexibility to choose an intrathoracic or extrathoracic approach. It is the first and only intrathoracic PEEK rib fixation system available.

“The response from surgeons has been extremely positive, with consistent praise for the system’s simplicity and ease of use,” said Ken Kremer, Chief Executive Officer of Chest Wall Innovations. “We look forward to building on this momentum as we bring PC Fix to additional hospitals in the coming months.”

Surgical stabilization of rib fractures (SSRF) is increasingly becoming the standard of care for select patients, and the American College of Surgeons’ November 2025 Best Practices Guidelines for the Management of Chest Wall Injuries outline when surgical repair should be considered. As more trauma programs adopt SSRF, PC Fix gives surgeons a simple, efficient option for chest wall repair.
