FiberLoop®&nbsp;is a continuous loop of FiberWire®&nbsp;with multiple needle options. The needles are easy to handle and move freely on the suture to recenter themselves after passing through tissue and facilitating even tension. Graft preparation using FiberLoop in conjunction with the Arthrex SpeedWhip™ technique drastically reduces time spent preparing the graft, uniformly compresses the graft, improves strength and allows for last minute adjustments in graft length.

Child (D)

Hand and Wrist

Part of the FiberWire® suture family, FiberLoop® is FiberWire suture where both ends of the suture are attached to a single needle, creating a suture loop. FiberLoop is the perfect suture option for multi-strand tendon repairs. These small diameter looped FiberWire products allow for strong multi-strand flexor and extensor tendon repairs while reducing tendon damage from multiple needle passes. FiberLoop is available with multiple needle options to prevent cutting suture while stitching.

FiberLoop suture, part of the FiberWire® suture family, has both of its ends attached to a single needle, creating a suture loop. FiberLoop suture is the perfect option for multi-strand tendon repairs. These small-diameter looped FiberWire products allow for strong multi-strand flexor and extensor tendon repairs while reducing tendon damage from multiple needle passes. FiberLoop suture is available with multiple needle options to prevent cutting suture while stitching. The #2 FiberLoop suture is a continuous loop of #2 FiberWire suture on a thin, straight Nitinol needle. The straight needle is easy to handle and moves freely on the suture to recenter itself after passing through tissue and to facilitate even tensioning. #2 TigerLoop™ suture has distinctive stripes to help differentiate graft strands during tensioning.

Many products are available to assist the surgeon with bone-tendon-bone (BTB) graft harvesting and preparation. 

 
 
The parallel graft knife—with parallel blades to create a precise cut in a single pass—is designed for harvesting the patellar or quadriceps tendon during an ACL or a PCL reconstruction. 
 

 
Graft harvesting cutting guides and saw blades can harvest an ideal trapezoidal-shaped bone plug with predrilled suture holes from both the patella and the tibia; the cutting guides provide consistent, reproducible 
results during tendon harvest. 
 

 
Additional instrumentation for BTB graft preparation, including a graft harvesting osteotome and ACL graft shaper, are also available.&nbsp;

BTB Graft Harvest and Preparation Instruments

Arthrex offers the most advanced techniques and instruments for hamstring harvesting and preparation. Harvesting can be accomplished safely and reproducibly both from the traditional anterior approach or through a posterior approach using the minimally invasive hamstring harvest technique and specialized tendon strippers. 
 

The Arthrex Graft Prep Station offers a variety of interchangeable clamps and posts to facilitate graft tensioning and suturing. 
 

Graft preparation has been revolutionized with the FiberLoop® line of suture and SpeedWhip™ technique. The continuous loops of #2 or #0 suture and free-floating straight or curved needles allow reproducible graft suturing in half the time of traditional straight sutures.

Hamstring Graft Harvest and Preparation Instruments

FiberLoop® and TigerLoop™ sutures are a continuous loop of FiberWire® suture with multiple needle options. The needles are easy to handle and move freely on the suture to recenter themselves after passing through tissue and facilitating even tension. Graft preparation using the SpeedWhip™ technique drastically reduces time spent preparing the graft, uniformly compresses the graft, improves strength,1 and allows for last minute adjustments in graft length.
&nbsp;
The SpeedWhip rip-stop technique eliminates the weak link in graft preparation by reinforcing the suture/tissue interface with a FiberTag® scaffold. A FiberTag suture is incorporated into the end of the FiberLoop construct to allow each needle pass to include both the graft and the FiberTag scaffold. This construct has been shown to increase the strength over standard stitching alone.1

Looped Suture With Needles

Procedure

PCL injuries occur during sports-related activities or high-velocity, traumatic accidents. Indications for operative treatment of PCL tears include acute injuries, active young patients, and either isolated grade 3 tears or combined injuries, such as a grade 2 injury with posterolateral corner instability. 

Arthrex developed several techniques for isolated PCL injuries—including PCL inlay reconstruction, double-bundle PCL reconstruction, and the transtibial PCL RetroConstruction™ procedure—that can be combined with multiligament or posterolateral corner reconstruction.
Additionally, a comprehensive line of PCL reconstruction instrumentation is available for a variety of PCL reconstruction techniques, as well as autografts and allografts and single- or double-bundle options.
