Allotrope Medical

Advancing surgical precision through safe electrical stimulation.

About

Allotrope Medical is a Houston-based medical device company founded and run by the surgeon that created the technology. Our platform stimulation technology gives physicians control over the natural movements of the urinary and digestive systems. This control over smooth muscle tissues allows the surgeon to identify hidden anatomic structures (ureters, sphincters and others), determine tissue health, and even assist in diagnosing disease states. The technology is delivered through the surgeon's existing instruments (which have remained unchanged in over 30 years) giving a completely new capability to the surgeon while maintaining seamless workflow integration. With an $600M (and growing) initial market, the technology is future-proof and is readily able to be integrated into the continued advancements in the surgical space.
