The CrossFix System ( All Inside )

  

Cayenne Medical’s CrossFix® II System is the next generation meniscal repair device that offers surgeons the benefits of both open suturing and arthroscopic meniscal repair. CrossFix® II replicates results from “gold standard” open suturing techniques but through a faster and less invasive all-inside method. While competitive meniscal repair devices offer the benefits of an all-inside technique, these systems leave behind plastic implants that can cause injury over time. CrossFix® II eliminates the risk of injury by securing meniscal tears with the same vertical or horizontal mattress stitch produced with open suturing techniques. CrossFix® II addresses the unmet needs in the market by offering a simple and safe solution for meniscal repair.

The CrossFix® II Meniscal Repair System

The CrossFix®II Meniscal Repair System is a suture only device that creates a 3 mm mattress stitch for a fast, strong, and reliable all-inside meniscal repair. The device design includes an incorporated

cannula and depth limiter that controls needle penetration. Both straight and curved needle designs are available allowing for easier access to multiple tear sites.
