WasherCap™ ACL Fixation System

Reliable and accurate soft tissue fixation independent of cancellous bone quality

WasherCap™ ACL Fixation System

The WasherCap™ family of devices has been designed to answer the high requirements of soft-tissue graft fixation. WasherCap™ provides a combination of strength and stiffness, to ensure proper graft osseointegration and deliver excellent biomechanical properties.

Bi-Planar Fixation

Achieves an unparalleled fixation in two planes, replacing traditional "inline" fixation with two different points of fixation in a single device. This eliminates the need for back-up or secondary fixation.

WasherCap benefits

Knotless, Adjustable-Tension Graft Fixation

This unique graft-to-device fixation, independent from patient's bone quality, allows for adjustment of tension even after locking fixation, without damage to the soft tissue graft.

Dual Fixation Mechanism

Provides superior rigid fixation for optimized healing through independent device-to-cortical bone and suture-to-device fixation, yielding higher mechanical pull-out strength and reduced cyclic displacement.

LOWEST RESIDUAL DISPLACEMENT STARTING AT TIME ZERO

Biomechanical tests demonstrated that ACL reconstructions using the WasherCap™ device provided a superior fixation strength on the tibial side compared to standard fixation devices, with a deviation of 9% thanks to its internal fixation mode. The minimal displacement (0,5 mm) of the device under cyclic loads provides greater safety during the patient rehabilitation period.

Simple, Safe, Reliable Instrumentation

Offers a repeatable, simple and safe procedure

Materials

WasherCap™ is composed of a cap and a screw with washer. The materials utilized include:

  • PEEK OPTIMA (Invibio® Polymer)

    Mechanical behavior similar to cortical bone. This material combines strength, stiffness, and resistance.

    Biocompatible, Bio-inert and MRI free imaging.

  • TITANIUM Ti-6AL-4V

    Human implantable alloy, biocompatible, bio-inert, with high strength and low weight ratio.
