A técnica Rip-Stop SpeedWhip™ elimina o elo fraco na preparação do enxerto, reforçando a interface entre sutura/tecidos com a estrutura FiberTag™. Um FiberTag é incorporado na extremidade do reparo FiberLoop® para permitir que cada passada da agulha abranja tanto o enxerto quanto a estrutura FiberTag. Comprovou-se que esse reparo aumenta a força apenas em comparação ao ponto padrão.*

John David Adams, MD (Greenville, SC), demonstrates an anatomic posterolateral corner reconstruction using the FiberTag® TightRope® implant and the InternalBrace™ technique. This procedure anatomically reconstructs the fibular collateral ligament, the popliteus tendon, and the popliteofibular ligament.
The InternalBrace surgical technique is intended only to augment the primary repair/reconstruction by expanding the area of tissue approximation during the healing period and is not intended as a replacement for the native ligament. The InternalBrace technique is for use during soft tissue-to-bone fixation procedures and is not cleared for bone-to-bone fixation.

QuadLink™ Graft Preparation With the FiberTag® TightRope® Implant

Thomas M. DeBerardino, MD, (Farmington, CT) demonstrates arthroscopic, double bundle, inlay PCL reconstruction. The femoral side is prepared by attaching ACL TightRope® suture to Achilles tendon with FiberLoop® with FiberTag™ sutures using a rip-stop stitching technique. The tibial bone plug is fixated using the PCL TightRope. Femoral and tibial sockets are created with the FlipCutter® and RetroConstruction™ PCL guides.

PCL Reconstruction with Achilles Graft Using FiberLoop® with FiberTag™ Rip-Stop Technique

This white paper compares standard graft stitching to #2 FiberLoop® with FiberTag™. Suture fixation of tendons for repair and reconstruction is common in orthopaedic surgery. The failure mode of suture fixation is suture-graft cut through and often results in increased elongation and decreased pull-to-failure when compared with other fixation techniques. The #2 FiberLoop with FiberTag creates a rip-stop effect and increases the strength of suture fixation. The unique design of a FiberTag integrated into a FiberLoop facilitates quick stitching of the tendons while reinforcing each stitch with a FiberTag rip-stop.
