Gracilis tendon ligament prosthesis 267 596

synthetic

Anatomical and minimally invasive ankle lateral ligament reconstruction (ALL) by gracilis tendon transplant was developed to address chronic ankle instability. It is based on various principles: – gracilis tendon transplant instead of autografting, which would weaken an already damaged ankle – anatomical transplant trajectory that minimises medium and long-term laxity while preserving good mobility – minimally invasive approach – reproducible positioning with a patented aiming device Features and materials: Absorbable 100% PLLA interference screw, 6 mm diameter, 20 mm length Instrumentation: Streamlined and minimalist instrumentation kit consists of an aiming device used to make two convergent tunnels, graft harvesting instruments and drills.
