Biceps tendon suture anchor BICEPTOR

non-absorbableknotless

The BICEPTOR Tenodesis System brings an efficient and adaptable approach to repairing the biceps tendon. This system has been designed to accommodate fully arthroscopic or mini-open biceps tendon repair and utilizes Smith & Nephew's BIOSURE◊ PK Interference Screws. • Efficient and adaptable approach • No whipstitching of tendon means a sutureless repair • Ability to cut tendon in last step reduces guesswork and control over tensioning • Strong pullout strength Arthroscopic biceps tendon repair: • Injured tendon remains inside the body during repair; conventional technique requires tendon to be pulled outside the body • No exteriorizing of tendon; system designed to facilitate a truly arthroscopic repair Mini-open biceps tendon repair: • System designed to accommodate mini-open procedures; necessary tools included for arthroscopic or mini-open repair Interference screws: • BIOSURE PK Interference Screws incorporate PEEK-OPTIMA® polymer from Invibio® • With a modulus similar to cortical bone, PEEK-OPTIMA® polymer exhibits an ideal combination of strength, stiffness and toughness together with extensive biocompatibility.
