Procedure

The CuffMend system provides an efficient, simplified approach for augmenting partial- and full-thickness rotator cuff tears. The system employs the benefits of a thick ArthroFlex dermal allograft, which provides mechanical strength and supports healing.1,2&nbsp;Introduce the graft using the graft spreader and use the FiberStitch™ RC implant for medial soft-tissue fixation to the rotator cuff tendon. Use self-punching PushLock®&nbsp;anchors, spanning the graft over the tuberosity footprint, for lateral bony fixation. Implantation of the CuffMend system is designed to be completed in less than 10 minutes. Scientific literature supports the use of acellular dermal grafts as a safe and effective solution for rotator cuff augmentation.3
