See the biggest evolution in rotator cuff fixation in 30 years and learn how the TENDON SEAM System turns convention on its head with:
+ A unique continuous-stitch construct offering 2x the biomechanical strength of a standard repair*1-5
+ Exceptional repair strength and stability, with less gap formation, to support recovery and tendon healing*1-5
+ A more streamlined procedure, limiting suture management*6
TENDON SEAM Technology joins the REGENETEN◊ Bioinductive implant to form a repair portfolio that leads the way in terms of procedural capabilities and clinical performance. Browse the highlights below to see how they could help your shoulder patients.
There’s no room for compromise or resting on convention when surgeons have their sights set on improvements. Whether it’s having an all-suture answer to all meniscal tears (capsular and non-capsular), reimagining reconstruction of knee ligaments, or understanding why evidence keeps pointing to a more effective cartilage repair approach7,15 (vs the current standard), there’s no need to accept current limitations.
Check out the key technology highlights to make the most of your event.

In complex anatomy and tight joint spaces, surgeons need an RF wand that will bend to their needs. Continuing the FLOW Wand’s 10-year legacy of leading design, the latest addition to the range has been engineered to offer:
+ Precision: Tapered tip design for optimal tissue targeting.19
+ Performance: Leverage FLOW Technology's 10 years of continual innovation.
+ Access: Adjust the shaft to your preferred angle, with hands-free retention.20
Once you twist + flex, it'll all make sense.
As the original architects of hip arthroscopy, we’re not just talking about improvements or results. We’re talking about the ability to achieve more in the OR and show why it is possible to go beyond the repair. Explore featured technology below…and have your questions ready.

*Improved biomechanical strength and stability compared to traditional repairs and knotted/knotless transosseous equivalent (TOE) repairs, as demonstrated in biomechanical testing was in human cadavers. Fewer procedural steps and portal entries compared to knotted TOE.
**Versus fixed angle HipVac and FLOW 50 wands.
***Isolated use vs standard repair. Standard repair = takedown and repair. Rehabilitation protocols differed between treatment groups: isolated REGENETEN Implant use employed a faster post-op rehab protocol vs traditional repair.
****As compared to competitive devices in fixation/pull-out benchtop testing.
*****Versus our predicate devices.
