Art-Fonks Double Button Lift System

Art-Fonks Double Button Lift System are products that can be adjusted to the desired extent for the fixation of Acromio-Clavicular joint dislocations and Syndesmosis joint dislocations.

Art-Fonks Double Button Lift System- AC Lift System restores the anatomy of the shoulder and especially the Acromio-Clavicular joint in case of acute, chronic dislocation and even fracture of the distal fourth part of the clavicle. It is applied by passing through a canal opened with a suitable drill bit and by pulling the sutures, the acromion and clavicle return to their original position and the dislocation is reduced.

Art-Fonks Double Button Lift System- The Syndesmosis Lift System is applied through a channel drilled with a suitable drill bit from the fibula to the tibia through the plate or without the plate and helps to restore the Syndesmosis separation in a controlled manner.

Circular and longitudinal buttons provide compression between both fibula/tibia and clavicle/coracoid bones.

Key Features and Benefits

High strength thanks to Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE)
Non-absorbable, White and Blue/White coloured suture combinations
Biocompatible Ti-6AI-4V ELI buttons

Options

Art-Fonks PEEK Interference Screw

Art-Fonks PEEK Interference Screw is a self-tapping screw designed for faster and more effective placement.

Art-Fonks PEEK Interference Screw is indicated for fixation of a complete soft tissue graft such as quadriceps tendon as well as fixation of a bone-tendon-bone graft, ACL and PCL tear.

Art-Fonks PEEK Interference Screw with round-edged atraumatic thread design reduces the shearing effect on the tendon.

Art-Fonks PEEK Interference Screw is easy to screw in and has a higher holding force due to its bullet core structure

The extended Hex Screwdriver bit fits snugly against the screw, which increases screw torque and reduces the risk of breakage.

Key Features and Benefits

Designed for fast and efficient insertion
Non-absorbable, radiolucent and MRI artefact-free PEEK-OPTIMA material
A variety of screws in 6 different diameters and 3 different lengths for intra-operative flexibility
Special design for knee and ankle ligamentoplasty surgical techniques
