The Eclipse Soft Tissue Anchor is MedShape’s solution for simple and reliable soft tissue repair. See what surgeons are saying... “The Eclipse tenodesis system provides excellent tendon fixation without having to use a screw or risk having to damage the tendon.” – Patrick St. Pierre, MD Desert Orthopedic Center, Palm Springs, CA “I have been very impressed with my clinical outcomes when using the Eclipse anchor in my tenodesis procedures. The Eclipse anchor is the first tenodesis device I have used that does not need to rotate to achieve fixation. The non-rotational expansion of the Eclipse sheath provides strong fixation and secures the soft tissue in the correct anatomic orientation without any damage or over-tensioning.” – Samuel B. Adams, MD Duke University, Durham, NC •The Eclipse Soft Tissue Anchor offers an innovative NON-ROTATIONAL approach for reattaching soft tissue to bone. •Designed for use in tenodesis or tendon transfer procedures, including: – – – – – Proximal Biceps Repair Lateral Ankle Stabilization FHL/FDL Tendon Transfer MPFL Reconstruction Distal Biceps Repair STRONG FIXATION The Eclipse Soft Tissue Anchor gives surgeons the confidence that their soft tissue fixation is dependable. The 2X expansion of the Eclipse sheath provides superior fixation strength across all size offerings compared with competitor screw devices. 1 Testing was performed in synthetic bone. Tunnel & tendon size = implant size PROCEDURAL VERSATILITY The Eclipse Soft Tissue Anchor adapts to surgeon preference for any soft tissue reattachment procedure by providing multiple options to manage and tension soft tissue. Tendon Fork Soft tissue management can be achieved independent of the device using the Tendon Fork. •Made out of MedShape’s proprietary shape memory PEEK Altera®. NO suturing or removal of soft tissue from the injury site - perfect for arthroscopic procedures! PEEK Altera®. It’s smarter than your average PEEK. MedShape’s proprietary PEEK Altera is the first shape memory PEEK (polyetheretherketone). Devices manufactured from PEEK Altera can be compressed into a compact temporary geometry for easy insertion into a target surgical site and be transformed into the optimal geometry for fixation without loss of mechanical integrity. PEEK Altera is: •Strong, yet highly deformable •Biocompatible •Bioinert •Radiolucent •MRI safe TENDON FORK Simply grip and push your soft tissue into the tunnel and follow it up with the Eclipse Soft Tissue Anchor. Suture Lasso Using the Suture Lasso and QuikWhip™ Surgical Suture, soft tissue can be managed alongside the Eclipse Soft Tissue Anchor allowing for the simultaneous insertion of soft tissue and device in the tunnel. Just feed the suture via the Suture Lasso through the sheath, tension the soft tissue to the sheath tip, and insert into the bone tunnel. It’s as easy as that! 1 Data on file. MedShape, 2013.
