Arthrex launched the TightRope SB implant, the first device on the market for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction using all-suture, soft-button technology. To date, nearly 2,000 implants have been used in procedures across the U.S.
By eliminating rigid materials and preserving strong, adjustable fixation, the device expands graft-fixation options for both ACL reconstruction and repair. This less invasive approach supports improved knee stability and range of motion, while eliminating the presence of metal implants.
The all-suture, soft-button technology used in the TightRope SB implant offers high-strength fixation and features a flat-tape loop that holds the new ligament in place. The implant is also radiopaque, and available in a variety of configurations to support ACL reconstruction using all graft types as well as ACL primary repair.
“We look forward to seeing how patients benefit from this revolutionary solution for ACL reconstruction,” said Arthrex Knee Ligament Senior Group Product Manager Justin Boyle. “The TightRope SB builds on Arthrex’s foundation of knee ligament innovation and reflects how ACL surgery continues to evolve.”
