Screw only for Tendon Tunnel

Clinical Application

Used to secure soft-tissue grafts or native tendon within a prepared bone tunnel by providing interference fixation at the tunnel aperture. Commonly utilized in procedures that require strong initial fixation of tendon-to-bone constructs, such as knee ligament reconstructions and selected tendon transfer or repair operations. The screw compresses the graft against the tunnel wall, providing mechanical stability to allow biologic incorporation.

Design & Configuration

The threaded, interference-style geometry is intended to engage cancellous bone and produce radial compression of the graft. Thread profile, pitch and head geometry influence pullout resistance, insertion torque and the amount of compression transmitted to the soft tissue. A defined driver-engagement interface permits controlled insertion using system-specific drivers to reduce graft slippage and minimize damage to the tendon during seating.
