TightRope® II RT Implant

The next evolution in adjustable cortical suspensory fixation, the ACL TightRope II implant includes a flat-tape TightRope loop for improved graft interface and handling characteristics during graft tensioning and greater resistance to graft abrasion.1 Engineered to enable precise graft tensioning and incremental retensioning of the construct after cortical button fixation, this implant features a proprietary 5-point locking design that resists cyclic displacement and offers excellent pull-out strength.2

An ideal choice for all inside ACL reconstruction, the ACL TightRope II RT implant can be used for femoral fixation and combined with an ACL TightRope II ABS implant and concave ABS button for tibial fixation to facilitate incremental graft advancement and tensioning of both the femoral and tibial ends of the graft.
