Turkish medical tech firm ventures into orthopedics

Turkey-based international medical technology firm RD Global Invamed has completed the buying of orthopedic implant manufacturer Prosim to expand its global operations.

"The company has expanded its scope by adding orthopedics to its expertise," it said in a statement on Tuesday. It is already working in areas such as cardiovascular surgery, vascular surgery, and oncology.

Last September, RD Global Invamed was selected as the leading medical device manufacturer in the field of vascular surgery for 2020 by Global Healthcare Pharmaceuticals, a global information sharing platform, the press release added.

With the latest acquisition, the company -- operating in 39 countries -- aims to have a significant market share in the global orthopedic medical device sector.

Prosim, established in 2010, produces advanced technology products in the fields of orthopedic implants, implant equipment, and surgical application sets.
