The Meniscus Mender II (MMII), originally made by Instrument Makar, is designed for suturing the meniscus under direct arthroscopic monitoring. The MMII allows the surgeon to work from the outside of the knee joint, instead of starting sutures inside the capsule and exiting them blindly out the back. This represents a safer, more effective method of treatment for repairable meniscal tears. Surgeon can use own choice of suture for the repair.
The MMII utilizes curved and straight spinal needles and a patented "Loop." These components and the outside-in approach minimize the risk of damage to neurovascular structures during meniscal repair.
The MMII Set includes:
10718 MPR 8 1/2" Straight Suture Passer (1)
10719 MPR 8 1/2" Curved Suture Passer (1)
