The Smith & Nephew TFCC mender disposable suture system is designed for repairing type 1B tears of the triangular fibrocartilage complex under arthroscopic visualization. The TFCC mender system allows the surgeon to work from the outside of the wrist into the joint, instead of starting sutures inside the capsule and exiting the posterior capsule blindly. The TFCC mender system utilizes curved and straight needles and a patented loop. Each Smith & Nephew TFCC mender disposable suture system is packaged sterile.
