The Arthrex® SpeedBridge™ repair is a surgical technique system that combines fully threaded SwiveLock® anchors with FiberTape® suture. The surgeon may use the SpeedBridge for repair of a rotator cuff tear. The rotator cuff is what holds your upper arm bone in the shoulder socket and helps to lift and rotate your arm. This procedure may help relieve pain in the shoulder and improve function to resume normal daily activities.

The OrthoIllustrated® animation for total shoulder replacement is an educational tool to help patients better understand the diagnosis and treatment of this orthopedic condition.

A meniscal tear occurs in the meniscus which is located in the knee, between the femur or the thighbone, and the tibia or shinbone. The meniscus helps to cushion the joint and keeps it stable. In this procedure, the meniscal tear is repaired using surgical implants with sutures.

The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is located in the middle of the knee joint and helps stabilize the knee in both front to back and rotational motions at the joint. A common injury to the ACL is a sprain or a tear. The ACL ligament is surgically reconstructed using a graft.

The tendon at the elbow in the forearm called the distal biceps tendon connects muscle to bone and allows us to move our arm. Rupturing of the distal biceps tendon may be caused by heavy lifting, eventual wear and tear from overuse or injury to the tendon. Arthrex’s Distal BicepsButton™ in combination with the tension slide technique is used to repair the ruptured distal biceps tendon, allowing the surgeon to repair the biceps tendon back to bone through a small, single incision. Anchoring the tendon with the cortical button and interference screw creates a strong repair that may allow for early range of motion.
