The Nano, Micro, Mini and 3.5 mm Corkscrew FT Suture anchors are designed with a fully threaded length to create maximum cortical purchase in smaller bones.
The Small Joint Corkscrew anchor offers a small inner diameter and large cancellous thread design for maximum holding power in cancellous bone.
Finally, the 3.7 mm Small Joint Bio-Corkscrew® Suture anchor features a unique suture eyelet molded into the body that virtually eliminates suture abrasion during knot tying.

Corkscrew® Anchors

Child (D)

Shoulder

The family of fully threaded Corkscrew suture anchors was designed for maximum fixation strength and simple insertion. These implants are available in a variety of materials including titanium, PLLA, PEEK, and biocomposite. An internal drive mechanism is combined with a unique FiberWire® suture eyelet to allow for continuous threads along the entire length of the anchor. This design allows the anchor to be inserted flush with the cortical bone surface providing excellent fixation strength and stability while preventing the anchor pullback effect that can occur in conventional anchors with protruding eyelets. The internal drive configuration allows for high insertion torque and the suture eyelet self-aligns to eliminate the need for specific eyelet orientation at the tissue edge. The anchors are available double- or triple-loaded with FiberWire suture or SutureTape to provide the best possible combination for superior repair strength.

This design allows the anchor to be inserted flush with the cortical bone surface providing excellent fixation strength and stability while preventing the anchor pullback effect that can occur in conventional anchors with protruding eyelets. The internal drive configuration allows for high insertion torque and rarely requires the bone socket to be tapped.

Corkscrew® FT Technique

The Knotless SwiveLock suture anchor for tensionable knotless soft-tissue repair is the most universal and adaptable knotless suture anchor on the market. The knotless mechanism is appealing to surgeons for unique tissue tear patterns while still achieving the core fixation from a SpeedBridge™ rotator cuff repair (RCR).
The standard SpeedBridge RCR technique has been trusted by surgeons for their patients since 2008. It has a proven success rate through multiple publications that have shown significant improvements in patient-reported outcomes that were durable at a minimum of 5 and 10 years postoperatively.1,2

Knotless SwiveLock® Suture Anchor

The SpeedBridge double-row technique is used to repair a rotator cuff tear using a fully threaded SwiveLock® anchor combined with FiberTape® suture to create a quick and secure construct with no knots and only two suture-passing steps. The SpeedBridge double-row technique uses FiberTape suture with three times the contact area compared to a standard #2 FiberWire® suture.1 It provides a broad footprint that can be helpful for repairs to degenerative cuff tissue for which tissue pull-through may be a concern.

SpeedBridge™ Double-Row Technique

While standard anchor fixation of the tendon creates only a single point of compression directly over the anchor, the SutureBridge™ enables an hourglass pattern of FiberWire® suture to be laid over the distal end of the tendon. This four-anchor construct enables a greater area of compression for the Achilles tendon on the calcaneus, improving stability and possibly allowing for earlier return to normal activities.

SutureBridge™

A transosseous equivalent SutureBridge that enhances footprint compression and may promote tendon healing-to bone can be achieved with minimal knot tying. The repair consists of a tied medial row constructed with two, fully threaded Corkscrew FT anchors, combined with knotless lateral fixation using two PushLocks or SwiveLocks. The result is a quick, secure and low profile repair with excellent contact between tendon and bone. The construct provides stability in rotation and protects a broad healing zone from synovial fluid infiltration.

SutureBridge™ Double Row Technique

The fully threaded, knotless SwiveLock C anchor is designed for use with FiberWire® or FiberTape® sutures during rotator cuff repair with the SpeedFix™, SutureBridge™, or SpeedBridge™ technique. The Labral SwiveLock anchor is available for instability repair and provides very high pullout and insertion strength while saving time.1 SwiveLock anchors are cannulated and vented to minimize material and allow for potential bony ingrowth.2 The anchors are available in multiple sizes, and in bioabsorbable biocomposite or PLLA and nonabsorbable PEEK materials.
