FiberWire® Suture Kits

Foot and Ankle

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.

FiberWire® is available in size 2 with multiple needle options.

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.

Procedure

Lateral extra-articular augmentation or reconstruction aims to eliminate residual laxity and reduce the risk of ACL graft rupture. Anterolateral ligament reconstruction could play a role in augmenting rotational stability in the ACL-reconstructed knee and are most likely to benefit hyperlax patients, revision cases, pivoting athletes, and those with IKDC grade III pivot shifts.

Anterolateral Ligament Reconstruction

The Humeral SuturePlate™ is an anatomically designed polyaxial locking plate and screw system designed for the treatment of proximal humeral fractures. These low profile plates with polyaxial bushings provide freedom to direct the locking screws within the anatomical template, based on the fracture pattern and bone quality for better fixation. Multiple chamfered suture eyelets along the margin of the plate allow the surgeon to pass FiberWire® suture after the plate is fixed to bone. FiberWire® Suture Kits which contain color-coded #2 or #5 FiberWire® sutures, with needles on each end, are available to facilitate suturing the soft tissue to the plate after it is in place.

Humeral SuturePlate™ Repair

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>
