FxBridge™ Tuberosity Repair System

Reproducible. Simple. Strong.

  • Three distinct suture colors aid in suture management for a simple, reproducible repair
  • FiberTape™ suture provides more resistance to tissue pull-through compared to round suture1
  • FxBridge technique facilitates anatomic tuberosity reduction, which increases tuberosity healing and improves postoperative range of motion2
  • 135° humeral inclination increases tuberosity healing rate and stability3-5
