Problem
Surgeons performing soft‑tissue graft fixation often rely on fixation methods that depend on bone quality, leading to inconsistent stability, limited tension control, and longer recovery times, especially in patients with poor or spongy bone.
Solution
Abanzamed offers a portfolio of implantable fixation devices—such as QuadLock™ and WasherCap™ systems—that provide strong, bone‑quality‑independent fixation for soft‑tissue grafts. The devices incorporate a washer‑cap mechanism that distributes load and enables bidirectional, tension‑adjustable fixation without the need for knots. By ensuring reliable osseointegration and stable graft tension, the technology supports faster rehabilitation and more predictable outcomes across a range of joint procedures, including ACL reconstruction. The product line includes both standard and mini versions to accommodate different surgical scenarios and patient anatomies.
Target Audience
Primary customers are orthopedic surgeons and sports‑medicine specialists performing soft‑tissue graft procedures, as well as hospitals and surgical centers adopting advanced fixation technologies.
