TRANSOSSEOUS ROTATOR CUFF REPAIR
Key Benefits
The ARTHROTUNNELER™ allows surgeons to apply “gold standard” principles of transosseous rotator cuff repair in an all-arthroscopic fashion – without anchors.
True transosseous fixation
Anatomic footprint contact and compression
Highly adaptable for revision cases requiring navigation around existing anchors
Biologic enhancement with bone tunnel marrow elements
The TUNNELPRO™ Lateral implants:
Protect suture-bone interface
Reduce possibility of suture migration
Distribute stress over greater area compared to suture alone
Increase functional area of bone bridge
Reduce bone abrasion leading to suture breakage
ARTHROTUNNELER™
Arthroscopic
Transosseous Tunneling Device
The ARTHROTUNNELER™ is the first sterile, single patient use
device that enables surgeons to arthroscopically place precise
intersecting tunnels and pass multiple sutures through bone
with the same instrument to facilitate a complete Arthroscopic
Transosseous Rotator Cuff Repair – without anchors.
Consistent. Straightforward. Reproducible.
The ARTHROTUNNELER™ allows surgeons to apply
“gold standard” principles of transosseous rotator
cuff repair in an all-arthroscopic fashion.
• True transosseous fixation
• Anatomic footprint contact and compression
• Biologic enhancement with bone tunnel
marrow elements
• Suture management clearly defined
ARTHROTUNNELER™ Surgical Technique
Step 1
Drill medial tunnel(s) to a positive
stop using the Drill Guide and
2.9 mm Drill - M. Drill additional
tunnel(s) at this time depending
on the size of tear and type of final
repair construct desired.
Step 5
Remove the Suture Inserter,
then retrieve the nitinol Loop
