Finished Product

VAR-8911DC

The TightRope implant’s FiberWire® suture is constructed of a multistrand, long-chain ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) core with a braided polyester and UHMWPE jacket that is used extensively in human surgery for many orthopedic applications and provides excellent strength, a soft feel, and abrasion resistance. The UHMWPE material has properties that make it stronger and less prone to failure than any other suture material. The implant uses bone-to-bone fixation, with superior strength and stiffness designed specifically for ligament repair.
 
Applications include:
<ul>
 <li>Coxofemoral luxation stabilization</li>
 <li>Tarsus stabilization</li>
 <li>Cranial cruciate ligament stabilization</li>
</ul>
 
Implant Assembly:
<ul>
 <li>Consists of 2 buttons and 2 suture strands of FiberWire or FiberTape® suture</li>
 <li>The TightRope implant and Mini TightRope implant include an attached passing needle</li>
</ul>
