Part of the FiberWire® family, TigerWire® suture uses the same high strength construction as FiberWire except that it contains a black marker strand in the suture weave. This strand appears as a stripe in the suture, making suture identification easier during joint reconstruction and soft tissue repairs. Trusted by leading orthopedic surgeons worldwide, FiberWire has contributed to successful surgical outcomes in over one million orthopedic surgical procedures. There are a variety of innovative solutions to arthroscopic suture passing in the FiberWire family including FiberStick® and TigerStick®, FiberTape® and TigerTape®, FiberLoop®, FiberSnare®, FiberChain®, and FiberLink™. Part of the FiberWire Suture Family includes 2-0 FiberWire Meniscus Repair Needles and the FiberWire Suture Kit. FiberWire accessories include Suture Cutters, the FiberWire Scissor, FingerShield™ and FiberWire Tensioner. Trusted by leading orthopaedic surgeons worldwide, FiberWire has contributed to successful surgical outcomes in over one million orthopaedic surgical procedures.

Soft-tissue meniscal allograft transplantation techniques continue to evolve with the advancement of fixation devices. Using common meniscal repair devices allows for greater flexibility while ensuring anatomic graft placement. Soft–tissue-only meniscal allograft surgical techniques and clinical outcomes are well documented and have good clinical efficacy.1-4

FiberWire suture is constructed of a multi-strand, long chain ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) core with a braided jacket of polyester that provides strength, soft feel and abrasion resistance that is unequaled in orthopedic surgery. FiberWire suture represents a major advancement in orthopedic surgery.

FiberWire® Suture

The goal of lateral extra-articular augmentation or reconstruction is to eliminate residual laxity and reduce the risk of ACL graft rupture. Two common techniques include iliotibial band (ITB) tenodesis and anterolateral ligament (ALL) reconstruction. These procedures play a role in augmenting rotational stability in the ACL-reconstructed knee. Patients who see the greatest benefit include hyperlax patients, revision cases, pivoting athletes, and those with IKDC grade III pivot shifts.
There are several distinct advantages of using adjustable, tensionable implant technology, such as the Knotless FiberTak® or FiberTag® TightRope®, when compared to traditional techniques using staples or interference screws. These advantages include:
<ul>
 <li>Simple: Quick, easy, and reproducible techniques.</li>
 <li>Safe: Reduced risk of ACL femoral tunnel convergence as Knotless FiberTak anchor sets just below the cortex. The self-punching anchor technique is designed to reduce the risk of damaging ACL graft as seen with traditional techniques that require drilling. No risk of graft laceration as described with interference screw techniques.1</li>
 <li>Low Profile: Techniques using additional hardware, such as staples, may lead to pain or discomfort, warranting hardware removal. There is no prominent hardware when using an anchor or TightRope implant.1</li>
 <li>Preserves Anatomy: The Knotless FiberTak onlay technique avoids drilling a socket. The FiberTag TightRope Implant minimizes the length of graft required for harvest.</li>
 <li>Titratable Graft Tensioning: With these techniques, a surgeon can provisionally tension and incrementally retension the graft after checking for isometry and overconstraint</li>
</ul>

Iliotibial Band Tenodesis

The Arthrex Pec Buttons are used for fixation of soft tissue-to-bone intended as fixation posts, a distribution bridge, or for distributing suture tension over areas of ligament or tendon repair. Each end of the buttons has an angled face to promote a toggle effect when the buttons contact the opposite cortex, enabling the Pec Buttons to be ideally suited for the repair of ruptures of the pectoralis major tendon back to bone. A unicortical pilot hole is formed with a drill bit and after attaching FiberWire® or FiberTape®&nbsp;sutures from the whipstitched pec tendon, the button is inserted in a unicortical fashion using the inserter.
