CapsuleStitch™ Suture Passer
The CapsuleStitch suture passer arthroscopically passes suture to close the hip capsule through a single portal following hip arthroscopy procedures. Featuring a 2.3 mm outer diameter, the suture passer’s 70° bend is ideal for hip capsular closure. With 45 mm of suture throw and nitinol jaws that extend past the tip of the needle, a surgeon can push the PEEK tubing over the nitinol jaws to capture suture 7 mm from the end of the needle tip. The suture passer is compatible with 1.3 mm SutureTape, #2 FiberWire® suture, and LoopLoc™ knotless implants.
