APPENDIX A
ECLIPSE SIZING GUIDE
Eclipse Sizing Guide
Measure the diameter of the graft using the MedShape
Soft Tissue Sizer. For arthroscopic or suprapectoral
biceps tenodesis, MedShape recommends selecting the
Implant size 1 mm larger than the diameter of the graft
and drilling the bone tunnel to match the diameter of the
Implant. If the graft measures a half size, select the
Implant size 1.5 mm over the size of the graft (e.g., for a
5.5 mm graft, select a 7 mm Implant).
Because of the harder, more dense bone found in a
subpectoral approach, MedShape recommends selecting
the Implant size that matches the diameter of the graft
and drilling the bone tunnel 1 mm larger in diameter than
the diameter of the Implant. If the graft measures a half
size, select the Implant size 0.5 mm over the size of the
graft (e.g., for a 5.5 mm graft, select a 6 mm Implant).
Arthroscopic or Suprapectoral Biceps Tenodesis
Graft Diameter Implant Size Tunnel Diameter Tunnel Depth
5 mm 6 x 20 mm 6 mm 25 mm
6 mm 7 x 20 mm 7 mm 25 mm
7 mm 8 x 20 mm 8 mm 25 mm
8 mm 9 x 20 mm 9 mm 25 mm
Subpectoral Biceps Tenodesis
Graft Diameter Implant Size Tunnel Diameter Tunnel Depth
5 mm 5 x 20 mm 6 mm 25 mm
6 mm 6 x 20 mm 7 mm 25 mm
7 mm 7 x 20 mm 8 mm 25 mm
8 mm 8 x 20 mm 9 mm 25 mm
Note: When anatomy permits, always select the Implant size with the greatest length. If the bone
is too narrow to accommodate the longer Implant, the shorter Implant may be selected for use. To
determine the appropriate bone tunnel depth, round the length of the Implant to the next higher
increment of 5 mm (e.g., for a 6 x 12 mm Implant, drill the bone tunnel to a depth of 15 mm).
