DX SwiveLock^® SL Anchor for Scapholunate Ligament Repair

Dorsal reconstruction of the scapholunate ligament with the 3.5 mm DX SwiveLock SL anchor is indicated for dynamic and static scapholunate instability where there is inadequate ligament to repair, the carpal cartilage is preserved (no arthrosis) and the carpus is reducible. The reconstruction is achieved by utilizing a strong anchor construct that incorporates a combination of a biologic tendon graft reconstruction into bony tunnels with static suture reinforcement with InternalBrace™ ligament augmentation. Together, this construct supports the connection of and between the bones so that graft incorporation can take place.
