#2 FiberWire® on Straight Needles comes in two needle options: a single needle attached to 38” of #2 FiberWire; or two needles, each attached to an end of 38” of #2 FiberWire. These are ideal to create a variety locking stitch patterns for avulsions of large tendons such as quadriceps, patellar, pectoral, or Achilles.

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 GraftLink technique provides the ultimate in anatomic, minimally invasive, and reproducible ACL reconstruction. Used in combination with anatomic guides, the FlipCutter® III drill allows independent femoral and tibial "retrodrilling" to create sockets while maintaining the cortices to maximize fixation. Femoral and tibial TightRope® II implants, with a proprietary 5-point locking system, make the GraftLink technique the most reproducible ACL reconstruction available.
<ul>
 <li>Anatomic:&nbsp;Independent tibial and femoral socket preparation with FlipCutter III reamer and/or low-profile reamers facilitate unconstrained placement of the ACL graft.</li>
 <li>Minimally Invasive:&nbsp;Socket preparation with the FlipCutter III reamer limits soft-tissue dissection and helps preserve bone and periosteum.&nbsp;</li>
 <li>Reproducible:&nbsp;The GraftPro® graft preparation system simplifies graft preparation; the tapered graft and adjustable ACL TightRope II buttons facilitate graft passing, fine tuning of graft depth, and graft tensioning from the femoral and tibial sides.</li>
</ul>
InternalBrace surgical technique is intended only to support the primary repair and is not intended as a replacement for the standard of care using biologic augmentation in a primary repair.&nbsp;InternalBrace surgical technique is intended only for soft-tissue-to-bone fixation and is not cleared for bone-to-bone fixation.

GraftLink® Technique

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 two-piece TensionLoc implant system is designed to fix suture during ligament reconstruction procedures. In this technique, tibial suture fixation is shown for a single- or double-bundle anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR). A unique alternative to standard suture buttons, the TensionLoc implant allows maintenance of suture buttons that allows maintenance of suture tension during knot tying. The low-profile PEEK implant sits flush and securely within the tunnel.

 <li>Strong initial fixation maintains graft tension for final fixation1</li>
 <li>Does not appear on x-ray</li>
 <li>Seals off the tibial tunnel to surround the graft with healing properties inside the proximal tibia</li>
 <li>Low-profile to avoid irritating surrounding soft tissue</li>
