About Endo Button Continuous Loop with Brace
The Endo Button is extensively used in orthopedic surgery, particularly in the repair and rebuilding of the knee s anterior cruciate ligament (ACL). It is a non-traditional method of connecting grafts to bone during ACL restoration treatments.An EndoButton Continuous Loop with Brace is an orthopedic implant that s used to fix ligaments and tendons during orthopedic surgeries, such as Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) reconstruction.Advanced Features:Improved Fixation StrengthStress Reduction and Better HealingTechnique with Minimal InvasionWidespread Use and FlexibilityPatient Advantages and Better OutcomesTechnical specification:Endo Button Loop Size: L 12mm X W 2mm X H 1.5mmAdvanced Design for Secure FixationThe Endo Button Continuous Loop with Brace incorporates high-performance materials such as titanium, stainless steel, and ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene. Its continuous loop technology, enhanced with polyester reinforcement, secures soft tissue and tendon grafts during arthroscopic ligament reconstruction, minimizing graft slippage and maximizing tensile strength.
Radiographic Clarity and Efficient OperationEquipped with a radiopaque metal button and radiolucent loop, this implant provides clear identification under imaging while avoiding unnecessary artifact. Its flat, low-profile button design aids easy passage through bone tunnels, and manual surgical instrumentation ensures accurate positioning in ACL/PCL surgeries.
Sterile, Preassembled, and Ready to UseEach implant is EO gas sterilized, individually packed in a blister tray, and intended for single use only. Preassembled for immediate intraoperative application, it guarantees sterility, portability, and efficiency for orthopedic and trauma care teams. Shelf life is five years, provided it is stored in a cool, dry place away from sunlight.
FAQ's of Endo Button Continuous Loop with Brace:
Q: How is the Endo Button Continuous Loop with Brace used during ACL or PCL reconstruction?
A: This implant is positioned arthroscopically in a prepared bone tunnel and used to secure soft tissue or tendon grafts. The preassembled loop and brace simplify insertion and enable safe fixation, providing reliable anchorage throughout the procedure.
Q: What materials are used in the construction of the Endo Button Continuous Loop with Brace?
A: The button is made of radiopaque titanium or stainless steel, while the continuous loop utilizes ultra high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) for strength, reinforced with polyester brace for added support.
Q: When should the Endo Button Continuous Loop with Brace be chosen for ligament reconstruction?
A: This device is ideal for cases requiring arthroscopic ACL or PCL reconstruction when strong graft fixation, minimal bone loss, and surgical precision are essential. It is suitable for securing soft tissue or tendon grafts in orthopedic and trauma surgeries.
Q: Where should the Endo Button Continuous Loop with Brace be stored before use?
A: The device should be stored in a cool, dry place away from sunlight in its unopened blister tray to maintain sterility and ensure a shelf life of five years.
Q: What process ensures the sterility of the Endo Button Continuous Loop with Brace?
A: Each implant undergoes sterilization using ethylene oxide (EO) gas and is individually packed in a sealed blister tray to preserve sterility and facilitate safe, single-use intraoperative application.
Q: What benefits does the continuous loop design with brace support offer?
A: The continuous loop and brace support system increase mechanical strength (withstanding loads over 1500N), enable easy passage through bone tunnels, reduce bone loss, and enhance pull strength. This makes fixation secure and reliable for ligament reconstruction.
