AC Joint Double Button Implant
Designed for anatomical reconstruction and stabilization of the acromioclavicular (AC) joint following acute or chronic dislocations. This implant system utilizes two low-profile titanium ELI buttons connected by high-strength UHMWPE sutures to achieve secure coracoclavicular (CC) ligament reconstruction.
The implant is deployed through minimally invasive techniques, allowing for precise reduction of the clavicle and acromion while minimizing soft tissue disruption. Its dual-button configuration ensures balanced load distribution and strong fixation, making it ideal for treating Rockwood type III to VI AC joint injuries.
Key Features:
Double-button system for enhanced biomechanical stability
UHMWPE sutures provide >1500N pull-out strength
Compatible with both open and arthroscopic techniques
Low-profile design reduces soft tissue irritation
Radiolucent and MRI-compatible materials
Suitable for acute dislocations and distal clavicle fractures
This implant offers orthopedic surgeons a reliable and reproducible solution for AC joint repair, promoting early mobilization and optimal functional recovery
