Surgical Procedures for Rotator Cuff using X-Repair
X-Repair™ may be used in open, mini-open or arthroscopic procedures. Utilizing X-Repair™ in an open or mini-open procedure presents little technical challenge as compared with undertaking the procedure without the augmentation device. The use of X-Repair™ will extend the total time of an open or mini-open procedure by only an additional 10 - 15 minutes. The arthroscopic procedure requires additional technical expertise and will add approximately 20 - 30 minutes to the length of the procedure.
The device can be provided in a range of sizes to accommodate the range in tear size and patients.
- 12 mm wide x 25 mm, 30 mm, 35 mm, and 43 mm long
- 25 mm wide x 25 mm, 30 mm, 35 mm, and 43 mm long
- 40 mm wide x 25 mm, 30 mm, 35 mm, and 43 mm long
