The BioACL technique harnesses the power of next-generation biologics to provide the ultimate anatomic, minimally invasive, reproducible approach for taking patient outcomes to the next level.
By prefilling ACL bone tunnels with a powerful composite of concentrated platelet-rich plasma (cPRP) from bone marrow aspirate (BMA) or whole blood processed with the Angel® system, the patient’s own bone collected with the GraftNet™ device, and AlloSync® Pure demineralized bone matrix, the BioACL technique provides all the necessary healing components for an ACL reconstruction procedure.
In conjunction with the QuadLink™ with InternalBrace™ technique, the BioACL technique has been shown to result in earlier range of motion, improved limb symmetry, less bone-tunnel widening, and improved patient-reported outcomes as compared to nonaugmented ACL procedures.1&nbsp;

The&nbsp;InternalBrace surgical technique is intended only to augment the primary repair/reconstruction by expanding the area of tissue approximation during the healing period and is not intended as a replacement for the native ligament. The&nbsp;InternalBrace technique is for use during soft tissue-to-bone fixation procedures and is not cleared for bone-to-bone fixation.

The FiberTag TightRope implant facilitates attachment of single-ended grafts, such as quad tendon grafts, to the ACL TightRope RT and ABS implants. FiberTag suture is integrated into the TightRope implant for a strong,1 consistent connection between the suture and TightRope loop. A simplified suturing technique, along with innovative packaging and the new GraftClamp graft preparation instrument, make preparing quadriceps tendon grafts faster and more reproducible than ever.

The innovative FlipCutter III drill is an adjustable, variable-size, all-in-one guide pin and reamer that allows minimally invasive socket creation from the inside out. Proprietary technology gives the FlipCutter drill unconstrained freedom of socket positioning and is ideal for difficult-to-reach applications such as tibial socket creation for PCL reconstruction, anatomic femoral socket creation for ACL reconstruction, and socket creation for meniscal allograft transplantation or meniscal root repair. With an adjustable design, the FlipCutter III drill can accommodate sizes 6 mm to 12 mm, including half sizes.

PCL injuries occur during sports-related activities or high-velocity, traumatic accidents. Indications for operative treatment of PCL tears include acute injuries, active young patients, and either isolated grade 3 tears or combined injuries, such as a grade 2 injury with posterolateral corner instability. 

Arthrex has several techniques for isolated PCL injuries—including PCL inlay reconstruction, double-bundle PCL reconstruction, and the transtibial PCL RetroConstruction™ procedure—that can be combined with multiligament or posterolateral corner (PLC) reconstruction.
Additionally, a comprehensive line of PCL reconstruction instrumentation is available for a variety of PCL reconstruction techniques, as well as autografts and allografts and single- or double-bundle options.

Arthrex pioneered quadriceps tendon (QT) autograft harvesting in 2014 with the minimally invasive QT harvest instrument set, which was designed for a much easier and more reproducible QT harvest. The next evolution in graft harvesting for ACL reconstruction, the QuadPro™ tendon harvester was specifically engineered to allow for efficient, safe graft harvesting while reducing the morbidity and challenges associated with traditional quad harvesting techniques.
