Product catalog summary
Overview: The document discusses a novel approach to ACL (Anterior Cruciate Ligament) reconstruction using a ribbon-like graft structure that mimics the native anatomical ACL. This method aims to improve healing and stress distribution by increasing the graft-to-bone contact area by 25% compared to traditional methods.
Key Features:
  • Improved Healing: The increased contact area potentially enhances bony ingrowth.
  • Natural Stress Distribution: The ribbon structure replicates the kinematics of the native ACL's two bundles.
  • Choice of Femoral Implant: Options are available to suit different surgical needs.
Surgical Steps:
  1. Graft Preparation: Transition from a round to a flat shape.
  2. Femoral Tunnel Preparation: Flat insertion technique.
  3. Tibial Tunnel Preparation: C-shaped insertion side.
  4. Graft Insertion and Fixation: Twisting of the graft during insertion.
Instruments and Implants:
  • Various order numbers and descriptions for surgical instruments and implants are provided, including adjustable buttons, continuous loops, and suture plates.
Instrument Sets:
  • Specific sets for sports medicine related to knee surgeries are listed, such as the Knee Ribbon ACL set and Knee Preparation Table set.
Ordering Information: Detailed order numbers and descriptions for related products, including cutters and wire kits, are provided.
Distribution and Contact: The document is distributed by Medacta International SA, with contact information and a note that it is not intended for the US market.
