Procedure

Harnessing the power of biologics to provide all necessary components of healing, the BioACL™ technique uses the patient’s own bone collected using the GraftNet™ device and mixed with autologous bioactive fluid.&nbsp;
Using the Angel® system or Arthrex ACP® double-syringe system, concentrated platelet-rich plasma (cPRP) is obtained from bone marrow aspirate (BMA) or whole blood. The autologous mixture is then delivered into the bone tunnels created during an ACL reconstruction. In conjunction with the QuadLink™ technique, the BioACL technique provides the ultimate anatomic, minimally invasive, and reproducible approach for biologically augmented ACL reconstructions.

BioACL™ Technique

Child (D)

Once the minimally invasive or open incision is made and proper soft-tissue windows are established, use the fibular, tibial, and/or femoral collateral marking hooks for anatomic precision and osseous measurements when drilling the appropriate reconstruction tunnels. Using the femoral collateral marking hook with the parallel drill guide will increase anatomic femoral drilling efficiency by significantly reducing convergent tunnels and allowing for accurate guide pin placement at multiple incremental distances. During tunnel creation, use the spooned ends of the collateral ligament retractor to retract the neurovascular structures and the collateral ligament rasp to chamfer the aperture of the completed reconstruction tunnels. Then use FiberWire® or FiberStick™ suture to pass the prepared grafts and tension to the desired position prior to graft fixation.

Anatomic Collateral Ligament Reconstruction

Collateral Ligament Reconstruction Set

Product

Multiple collateral ligament reconstruction techniques are available and range from aperture fixation using the BioComposite SwiveLock® tenodesis system with biocomposite interference screws to suspensory fixation using TightRope® technology. 
 
For primary or hybrid collateral ligament repair techniques, choose from a comprehensive line of anchor fixation devices, including FiberTak® soft anchors or biocomposite suture anchors, which come preloaded with needles.

Collateral Ligament Reconstruction Set

The FiberTag TightRope implant facilitates attachment of single-ended grafts, such as quad tendon grafts, to the ACL TightRope RT and ABS implants. FiberTag suture is integrated into the TightRope implant for a strong,1 consistent connection between the suture and TightRope loop. A simplified suturing technique, along with innovative packaging and the new GraftClamp graft preparation instrument, make preparing quadriceps tendon grafts faster and more reproducible than ever.
