The Arthrex CuffMend system provides an efficient, simplified approach for augmenting partial- and full-thickness rotator cuff tears. The system employs the benefits of a thick ArthroFlex dermal allograft, which provides mechanical strength and supports healing.
Introduce the graft using the graft spreader and use the FiberStitch™ implant for medial soft-tissue fixation to the native rotator cuff tendon.
Use PushLock® anchors, spanning the graft over the tuberosity footprint, for lateral bony fixation.
Implantation of the CuffMend system is designed to be completed in less than 10 minutes.
In today’s #WhatsNewAtArthrex, Christopher Donaldson, MD, demonstrates the surgical technique for a posterior-approach CuffMend™ augmented rotator cuff repair using FiberStitch™ RC as medial graft fixation.
