Bio-Corkscrew® FT

Knotless SwiveLock™ & FiberChain®

SutureBridge™

SpeedBridge™

The fully threaded Corkscrew family of suture anchors was designed for maximum fixation strength and simple insertion. An internal drive mechanism is combined with a unique FiberWire® suture eyelet to allow for continuous threads along the entire length of the anchor. This design allows the anchor to be inserted flush with the cortical bone surface providing excellent fixation strength and stability while preventing the anchor “pull-back” effect that can occur in conventional anchors with protruding eyelets. The internal drive configuration allows for high insertion torque and the suture eyelet self-aligns to eliminate the need for specific eyelet orientation at the tissue edge. The anchors are double-loaded with FiberWire suture to provide the best possible combination for superior repair strength.

Bio-Corkscrew FT Suture Anchor

BioComposite Corkscrew FT Suture Anchor

Corkscrew FT Suture AnchorThe Corkscrew FT family is made of titanium. The 5.5 mm Corkscrew FT II features the unique FiberWire eyelet to minimize suture abrasion and maximize suture sliding during knot tying. The 4.5 mm Corkscrew FT II and 6.5 mm Corkscrew FT III feature a metal crosspin eyelet. All have a strong internal hex drive mechanism. The anchor is inserted without the need for bone socket preparation. A mallet is used to introduce the anchor tip, then the anchor is screwed in until flush.

The PEEK Corkscrew FT is made from polyetheretherketone, which is a non-asorbable, thermoplastic material with excellent biocompatibility and biostability characteristics. The anchor is radiolucent and will not cause an artifact on imaging studies. A punch is required to prepare a bone socket for anchor insertion. Combination punch/taps are available for use in extremely hard bone.

The Bio-Corkscrew FT is made from bioabsorbable PLLA. Its strong internal square drive mechanism increases insertion torque to minimize stripping during insertion into hard cortical bone. A punch is required to prepare a bone socket for anchor insertion. Combination punch/taps are available for use in extremely hard bone.

This bioabsorbable suture anchor composed of b-TCP and PLLA offers the same benefits as the Bio-Corkscrew FT, with the addition of 15% Beta tricalcium phosphate. Studies suggest that early bone formation can be connected to the favorable osteoconductive and bioresorbable properties within b-TCP.

SpeedBridge™...The Knotless SutureBridge

The fully threaded SwiveLock C can be combined with FiberTape to create a quick and secure SutureBridge construct with no knots and only two suture passing steps. The result is a low profile, transosseous equivalent suture bridge that enhances footprint compression to maximize contact between tendon and bone which helps promote healing.

Cadaveric testing shows that the SpeedBridge is equivalent to the standard SutureBridge in both strength and gap formation.

A transosseous equivalent SutureBridge that enhances footprint compression and may promote tendon healing-to-bone can be achieved with minimal knot tying. The repair consists of a tied medial row constructed with two, fully threaded Corkscrew FT anchors, combined with knotless lateral fixation using two PushLocks. The result is a quick, secure and low profile repair with excellent contact between tendon and bone. The construct provides stability in rotation and protects a broad healing zone from synovial fluid infiltration.

Cadaveric biomechanical testing of the SutureBridge construct showed that the average load to failure was 460N vs. 373N for a standard single row repair. Gap formation under cyclic loading averaged only 1.1 mm vs. 2.4 mm for a standard single row repair. (Data on file)

Knotless SwiveLock & FiberChain...Single & Double Row Repair

Knotless rotator cuff repair is made simple with the SwiveLock Suture Anchor and FiberChain. Developed in conjunction with Stephen S. Burkhart, M.D., FiberChain is a specialty suture that is formed from #2 FiberWire. One end is a standard single suture strand, while the other is fashioned into chain links that are each approximately 6 mm long. The SwiveLock Suture Anchor consists of a fully threaded, anchor body (PLLA or PEEK) and a forked, swivel tip (PEEK) that are loaded onto a tenodesis style driver. The thread configuration is the same as for the proven Bio-Corkscrew FT.

Capture appropriate FiberChain link with forked tip and insert SwiveLock.

ScorpionThe Scorpion Suture Passer adds simplicity to suture passing in rotator cuff repair. Ergonomically designed for one-hand use, the multi-function Scorpion grasps cuff tissue, then directly passes and retrieves a FiberWire.

The low profile, standard Scorpion grasps 16 mm of tissue and fits through a 5.75 mm cannula. A larger, 20 mm version was developed for use in double row techniques that require a deeper medial bite. A “Humpback” version, with locking jaws, is available for use in thicker rotator cuff tissue. The “Humpback” requires a 7 mm cannula.

All Scorpions use the same disposable needle which withstands multiple suture passes during a single case.

Accessory Instruments

Double ScorpionEasily pass two pieces of FiberWire for one horizontal mattress or two simple stitches at one time. The SureFire double needle design captures and passes both sutures through thick tissue at about a 7 mm spacing. Use this instrument along with the new 8.25 mm Expanula and FiberWire Grasper for the ultimate suture passing system.

NeedlePunch® IIThe NeedlePunch II is a simple, versatile and effective suture passing instrument with a newly designed ergonomic handle and push rod. The low profile allows it to fit through a 7 mm diameter cannula. The lower jaw has more taper for easier placement under the rotator cuff tissue enabling the surgeon to reduce soft tissue and place a stitch up to 1 cm medial to the edge of the tissue.

The needle is available in multiple configurations for shuttling suture through tissue and for side-to-side cuff repairs.

The BirdBeaks are an essential tool for arthroscopic labral, SLAP or rotator cuff repair. The BirdBeak Evolution has a uniquely designed handle that allows for easy operation from virtually any hand position.

BirdBeak®

This innovative BirdBeak’s lower jaw opens to easily retrieve sutures from directly above an anchor. This can be helpful when passing stitches for both rotator cuff and labral repairs. The instrument utilizes a ratcheting WishBone handle. The ratcheting feature can be locked out if desired. The lower jaw incorporates a suture grasping notch which allows the surgeon to grasp the suture with or with-out allowing it to slide.

Bone marrow is a source of stem cells and progenitor cells that can repair, maintain, and differentiate into a variety of tissues. Many studies have investigated the benefits of bone marrow, promoting its use for bony and tendon defects. RC Allograft can act as a carrier of bone marrow which promotes a biological response to damaged rotator cuff tissue.

SpeedBridge with RC Allograft Augmentation

The SpeedBridge rotator cuff repair can easily be combined with RC Allograft to provide complete footprint restoration on challenging repairs. RC Allograft is sterile rotator cuff tendon that can be hydrated with bone marrow aspirate and shuttled down the medial row FiberTapes into position to complete the repair.
