FHL Tendon Transfer Using the DX Button and Tension-Slide Technique

The FHL Implant System comes in two size offerings of 6.25 mm × 15 mm and 7 mm × 23 mm with everything included for an FHL tendon transfer in association with the Tension-Slide Technique. This simple, reproducible, and biomechanically strong method of fixation1 reliably seats the tendon against cortex of the bone socket, maximizing the surface area for tendon-to-bone healing. The BioComposite Tenodesis screw adds strength to the final construct with an aperture interference fit and provides a scaffold for bony ingrowth.
