ArthroFLEX®

ArthroFlex® is an acellular dermal matrix used to supplement soft tissue repairs such as the Achilles tendon and rotator cuff. It has ≥ 97% DNA removal, comes ready-to-use right out of the package, can be stored at room temperature (15°C - 30°C), and has a Sterility Assurance Level (SAL) of 10-6, which is equal to medical device-grade sterility.1,2
  • Improved Clinical Outcomes: ArthroFlex demonstrated decreased re-tear rates and improved patient reported outcome scores after one and two years3,4
  • Increased Safety: Sterile with a SAL of 10-6 means lower risk of disease transmission
  • Decellularized: Uses Matracell® technology to remove ≥ 97% DNA and cellular remnants to decrease likelihood of immune response1
  • Promotes Rapid Healing: Biocompatible and retains natural growth factors, collagen and elastin1
  • Convenient: Preservon® technology allows graft to be stored fully hydrated at room temperature (15°C - 30°C) so it can be used right out of the package, without lengthy OR reconstitution processes1,2
  • Versatility: Available in multiple sizes and thicknesses
Clinical Application
  • Augment repairs of the rotator cuff
  • Augment repairs of the Achilles, biceps, quad and patellar tendons
  • Reinforce peroneal/tibialis tendons and flexor/extensor tendons of hand and foot
  • Reinforce capsular repairs
  • Suture reinforcement of soft tissue repairs
