Hand/Wrist InternalBrace™ Ligament Augmentation Repair Convenience Kit

Arthrex provides several options to repair and reconstruct the scapholunate ligament. The hand and wrist InternalBrace ligament augmentation repair system is a novel approach to combining a biologic repair with the strength from SutureTape. If a single-anchor repair is desired, Arthrex offers knotless and knotted suture anchor fixation devices with different suture and needle configurations.

FiberLock™ CMC Suspensionplasty

The FiberLock™ suspension system is a single-incision suture suspensionplasty using the latest in anchor and suture technology. A FiberTak® all-suture anchor provides cortical fixation on the far cortex of the 2nd metacarpal. The 1st metacarpal is suspended from the 2nd using the FiberTak anchor SutureTape, which is then secured into a knotless DX SwiveLock® SL anchor in the 1st metacarpal.
Specialized instrumentation allows for precise drilling and insertion of the FiberTak anchor through the same standard incision made for trapeziectomy. All contents are conveniently packed in a single-use system kit.

Mini TightRope® CMC Technique

The Mini TightRope technique provides a unique method for stabilization of the thumb metacarpal following trapezial resection or removal for the treatment of CMC arthritis. The Mini TightRope technique can also be used as an adjunct and stabilizer in CMC instability and in the case of revision with proximal migration after tendon reconstruction.

The Mini TightRope technique supports and maintains the thumb and index metacarpals in proper relationship, while allowing for healing and scar tissue formation in the trapezial space. The construct consists of 2 strands of #2 FiberWire® suture, which are fixed with 2 oblong stainless steel buttons for cortical fixation.

For more specific information about the Mini TightRope CMC fixation technique, please see the Mini TightRope CMC surgical technique guide.

Titanium Wrist Plating System Technique

The Titanium Wrist Plating System Technique is designed for fixation of intra-articular and extra-articular fractures, osteotomies, as well as nonunions and malunions of the distal radius. The titanium volar plates are available in a wide array of sizes (narrow, standard, and wide) and in multiple shaft lengths. A variety of screw fixation options, aiming guides, and instrumentation allows for customization according to surgeon preference and complexity of the fracture. The Titanium Wrist Plating System is developed to provide the answer to your distal fixation repairs.


Advantages


Comprehensive: In addition to a comprehensive plate selection, multiple screw options are available including fixed angle locking, variable angle locking, and nonlocking screws.


Options: Fracture patterns create unique challenges and the variety of fixation options included allow multiple solutions for even the most complex fracture patterns.


Straightforward Instrumentation: Separated into individual caddies, the instrumentation for the 2.4 mm and 3.5 mm screws are easy to identify. The screws sit in a graduated tray to ensure the proper screw length is selected, reducing the time needed to measure screws by hand.

Titanium Wrist Plating System

The Titanium Volar Distal Radius Plating System provides a comprehensive solution for distal radius fracture management. Volar plates are available in narrow, standard, and wide, as well as in multiple shaft lengths. The volar plates are now offered with two different screw shaft options, 2.4 mm and 3.5 mm. A variety of aiming guides and instrumentation also allows for customization, based on surgeon preference. The Wrist Plating System, which includes both the volar and fragment specific plates, is developed to provide the solution to your distal radius fixation needs.

Advantages


Anatomic: Plates are developed to fit the anatomy and contours of the distal radius for a low-profile repair and anatomic reduction of the fracture. Comprehensive In addition to a comprehensive plate selection, multiple screw options are available, including KreuLock™ Locking Compression Screws, fixed-angle locking, variable-angle locking (VAL), and nonlocking screw options. The plate is available with either 3.5 mm or 2.4 mm shaft screws to accommodate surgeon preference.

Options: Fracture patterns create unique challenges and the variety of fragment specific plating options included allow multiple solutions for even the more complex fracture patterns.

Mini Comprehensive Fixation System

The Arthrex Mini Comprehensive Fixation System (Mini CFS) is a comprehensive solution for mini fragment fixation and fusion needs. Multiple modules within the system offer 1.0 mm screws, 1.4 mm plates/screws, 1.6 mm plates/screws, 2.0 mm plates/screws, and 2.4 mm plates/screws along with associated instrumentation.
Each module offers an array of plate options and sizes with VAL capabilities in every plate family down to the smallest 1.4 mm plate size. Hexalobe drive shafts in every plate/screw module ensure excellent torque transfer and overall screw control.1
Intramedullary fracture fixation is also an option with our longer length headless compression FT screws offered in the 2.0 mm and 2.4 mm modules giving surgeons a minimally invasive option to treat metacarpal or phalangeal fractures.
