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.
“The SUTUREFIX Ultra anchor truly is the next generation of hip labral repair fixation; with a reliable deployment that ‘clicks’ to confirm the anchor is set,” says Marc J. Philippon, MD, of the Steadman Philippon Research Institute in Vail, Colo. “This anchor system is so versatile I can place it anywhere along the acetabular rim, providing additional fixation points for a secure repair.”
