Titanium Screw Suture Anchor
The Titanium Screw Suture Anchor is a precision-engineered implant designed for robust soft tissue fixation in orthopedic and sports medicine procedures.
Fabricated from medical-grade titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V), it offers superior mechanical strength, biocompatibility, and long-term osseointegration potential.
Clinical Applications:
- Ligament and Tendon Repair: Used in procedures such as rotator cuff repair, bankart lesion, SLAP leison, medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction, and quadriceps/patellar tendon fixation
- Knee Ligament Reconstruction: Demonstrated efficacy in anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and medial collateral ligament (MCL) repairs
- Bone Integration: Promotes bony ingrowth at the anchor site, enhancing biological fixation and reducing implant migration
Technical Features:
- Suture Configuration: Preloaded with UHMWPE sutures for high tensile strength and minimal tissue reaction
- Thread Geometry: Cancellous screw design with sharp tip enables secure insertion without pre-tapping
- Eyelet Design: Inner eyelets and internal routing option is optimized for low profile, suture separation and sliding mechanics
- Surface Finish: Micro-textured surface enhances osteoconductivity and long-term fixation stability
Biomechanical Performance:
- Withstands cyclic loading up to 400 cycles without failure in cadaveric bone models
- Comparable fixation stiffness and displacement metrics to standard anchors in both human and ovine specimens
Advantages Over Polymer-Based Anchors:
- Radiopaque for precise intraoperative and postoperative imaging
- Higher pull-out strength in dense cortical bone
- Long-term durability with minimal risk of degradation or inflammatory response
Available Sizes:
- Diameters: 3.5 mm and 5.0 mm
- Suture Options: USP # No:2 With Needle or WithOut Needle depending on surgical indication
