Just weeks after the $485 million merger of Kinetic Concepts and Systagenix, the duo plans to merge forces with LifeCell Corp., forming a 3-headed hydra of wound care, biologics and regenerative therapies.
The new company will be run by KCI president & CEO Joe Woody, with LifeCell commercial operations chief Phil Croxford as senior vice president and "permanent leader" of LifeCell, according to a joint statement.
