KINSA RC 5.5 Suture Anchor (Prod 8273)
About KINSA RC 5.5 Suture Anchor (Prod 8273)
KINSA RC 5.5 Suture Anchor is designed to provide secure repair of shoulder injuries stemming from tears to the rotator cuff. The KINSA RC anchor is small - about ½-inch in length - and made from an implantable polymer PEEK-OPTIMA® polymer from Invibio®. These implants do not show up on X-rays or distort MRIs, as metal anchors would. The KINSA RC Suture Anchor is the second in Smith & Nephew Endoscopys line of KINSA suture anchors. The original KINSA anchor, for treatment of shoulder instability, was released in 2006. Both KINSA anchors encase a sliding, self-locking knot that permits the surgeon to secure the repair without tying knots on top of the tissue. The anchor is well suited for "double-row" fixation -this technique calls for the surgeon to anchor the rotator cuff tissue at several points, distributing the strength of fixation across the shoulder.
