Exceptional Material and EngineeringCrafted from titanium alloy, this EndoButton alternative features a radiolucent, braided UHMWPE suture loop, providing both remarkable biocompatibility and high mechanical strength. The flat design of the button ensures secure seating on the femoral cortex, supporting robust ligament fixation. Multiple loop sizes allow precise adaptation to patient anatomy, accommodating various ligament reconstruction needs.
Minimally Invasive and User-FriendlyThis implant can be easily deployed using a manual technique, supporting real-time operation and precise placement. Its small, lightweight form (approx. 1.5 g) enables minimally invasive surgery, which may reduce operative time and potential complications. The device is silent, portable, and comes in sterile, single-use packaging for maximum safety and convenience.
Reliable Performance and Safety StandardsWith a tensile strength exceeding 1000 N and excellent corrosion resistance, the implant meets stringent safety and durability standards. Its gamma radiation sterilized and CE certified, ensuring compliance with international regulations. The product remains effective for up to 5 years when properly stored in a dry, sterile environment.
FAQs of EndoButton implant alternative:
Q: How is the EndoButton implant alternative used during ligament reconstruction surgery?
A: The implant is utilized for femoral cortical fixation during ACL or PCL reconstruction procedures. After preparing the graft, the surgeon passes the UHMWPE suture loop through the femoral tunnel, deploys the flat button on the outer femoral cortex, and achieves secure graft fixation with the chosen loop length.
Q: What are the available suture loop size options for this implant?
A: The implant offers a range of loop length options: 15 mm, 20 mm, 25 mm, 30 mm, 35 mm, 40 mm, 50 mm, and 60 mm. This allows surgeons to select the optimal loop size depending on individual patient anatomy and surgical requirements.
Q: When should this EndoButton alternative be used?
A: It is indicated for use during surgical procedures for anterior or posterior cruciate ligament (ACL or PCL) reconstructions and for soft tissue fixations where secure and reliable femoral cortical fixation is needed.
Q: Where is this implant manufactured and supplied?
A: This EndoButton alternative is manufactured, exported, and supplied by companies based in India, adhering to rigorous international standards such as CE certification for medical devices.
Q: What benefits does this implant offer over traditional fixation methods?
A: The device offers high tensile strength, excellent corrosion resistance, biocompatibility, and minimally invasive placement. Its radiolucent UHMWPE loop allows for clear postoperative imaging, and various loop sizes enhance surgical flexibility.
Q: How should the implant be stored to maintain sterility and effectiveness?
A: Store the implant in its original, individually blister-packed packaging within a dry and sterile environment. Proper storage can preserve its sterility and effectiveness for up to 5 years.
Q: Is the EndoButton alternative MRI compatible and safe for imaging?
A: Yes, the implant is MRI compatible. Its titanium alloy construction and radiolucent UHMWPE loop ensure that it does not interfere with imaging, allowing for safe postoperative evaluation.
