InternalBrace™ Ligament Augmentation Repair—Deltoid Ligament
Norman E. Waldrop III, MD (Birmingham, AL), demonstrates using the InternalBrace™ ligament augmentation repair to support primary deltoid repair. This repair incorporates knotless BioComposite SwiveLock® suture anchors and FiberTape® suture to support the repair during the healing process.
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.
