An all-inside, all-suture meniscal repair device.
- The MaxFire™ MarXmen™ Meniscal Repair Device is an all-inside, all-suture meniscal repair device utilizing ZipLoop™ Technology
- Sutures can be precisely positioned in either horizontal and/or vertical mattress stitches
- Cannula based delivery system precisely controls the placement of meniscal sutures
- MaxFire™ Mensical Repair Device was shown to be stronger in cyclic loading testing in porcine meniscus1
- The MaxFire™ Mensical Repair Device was shown to be stronger in load-to-failure pullout testing in porcine meniscus1
The next generation of all-inside, all-suture meniscal repair. Building upon the proven strength1 of the MaxFire™ Device, the MaxFire™ MarXmen™ Meniscal Repair Device now incorporates a new easy-to-use2 one-handed trigger delivery system. The MaxFire™ MarXmen™ trigger delivery system requires the least amount of insertion force when compared to other all-inside meniscal repair devices.2 Using the rigid tube cannula helps protect the surrounding structures in the joint. The cannula houses the needle sled when the device is inserted into the joint space, and is available in curved and straight geometries. The needle sled guides the deployment path of the MaxFire™ MarXmen™ device. Depth markings in 2mm increments control the depth of penetration through the meniscus.
