Intended Use

The Resorbable LactoSorb-L® ACL Crosspin is indicated for ACL reconstruction.

Device Story

Resorbable LactoSorb-L® ACL Crosspin is a threadless, push-in fixation device used for femoral fixation of soft tissue grafts during ACL reconstruction. The device is composed of a PLLA:PGA copolymer and features a suture eyelet at the tip to facilitate surgical technique. It is intended for use by surgeons in an operating room setting. The device provides mechanical fixation of the graft to the bone. Substantial equivalence is established through mechanical testing comparing the device to existing predicate fixation pins and screws.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data was used to establish substantial equivalence. Evidence is based on bench-top mechanical testing.

Technological Characteristics

Material: PLLA:PGA copolymer. Design: Threadless, push-in pin with a suture eyelet at the tip. Non-cannulated. Intended for femoral fixation of soft tissue grafts.

Indications for Use

Indicated for ACL reconstruction in patients requiring femoral fixation of a soft tissue graft.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A smooth or threaded metallic bone fixation fastener is a device intended to be implanted that consists of a stiff wire segment or rod made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum and stainless steel, and that may be smooth on the outside, fully or partially threaded, straight or U-shaped; and may be either blunt pointed, sharp pointed, or have a formed, slotted head on the end. It may be used for fixation of bone fractures, for bone reconstructions, as a guide pin for insertion of other implants, or it may be implanted through the skin so that a pulling force (traction) may be applied to the skeletal system.
