The anchor is indicated for use in both hip and shoulder labral repair. Its smaller size and soft construct allows surgeons to fine tune their repairs by adding additional anchors and fixation points.
“When the design team started working on this anchor, surgeons were very clear with what they wanted; a small, soft anchor that is easy to deploy and delivers excellent fixation in a variety of bone qualities,” said Scott Schaffner, vice president, global sports medicine franchise for Smith & Nephew. “And as a company known for our sports medicine expertise and pioneering products, we knew that we could deliver.”
