QuickPass™ FiberTape® Cerclage Technique

FiberTape cerclage, composed of UHMWPE and polyester braid, is an all-suture alternative to metal cables and wires traditionally used for circumferential fracture management in the upper and lower extremities.

The QuickPass FiberTape Cerclage system is based on the trusted performance of the original FiberTape Cerclage System but introduces unique instrumentation for a faster, more efficient way to pass FiberTape cerclage.

Advantages of Suture-Based Cerclage

• Broad footprint compression

• Low-profile construct

• High ultimate-load strength1-3

• No sharp ends or broken wires that could potentially harm surgeons or patients

• No concerns about metal mismatch with adjacent implants

• No migration of metallic debris or risk of metallosis
