Corkscrew™ II Suture Anchor

Products	Corkscrew™ II Suture Anchor
Company	Arthrex
Item	Corkscrew™ II Suture Anchor
Features	Two individual suture eyelets Rotator cuff repair Soft tissue anchoring Two sutures Cancellous threads Maximum pull-out strength in soft bone Optional attachable handle FiberWire option
Description	The Corkscrew II is a 5 mm suture anchor that incorporates a small minor diameter and a cancellous screw thread design for maximum pull-out strength in soft bone. The anchor has two individual eyelets to minimize the possibility of locking the second suture after the first suture is tied. The vertical laser mark on the distal part of the insertion shaft indicates the orientation of the suture eyelets. When the anchor is inserted, the vertical laser mark should point toward the cuff tendon to ensure the suture slides smoothly through the tissue and eyelet minimizing suture abrasion and sliding resistance. The sharp, conical tip ensures that positioning on bone and ease of starting will be accomplished with little effort. The Corkscrew II is supplied sterile and preloaded on a disposable handled inserter with two strands of #2 FiberWire suture or Tevdek suture. A Corkscrew Starter Awl is available should the surgeon encounter very hard bone and subsequent difficulties starting the anchor in indications other than the humeral head. This Awl requires a handle such as the Tear Drop Handle or the Ratcheting Screwdriver Handle. A Reusable Corkscrew Handle is available for surgeons who prefer a larger handle.
