Product Overview
The GFS Ultimate is a top-of-the-line suspensory fixation device that combines the convenience of adjustability with the strength and stiffness of conventional fixed length loop devices. The proprietary Parcus™ design consists of an UHMWPE loop that is infinitely adjustable between 12mm and 60mm allowing it to fit in virtually any length tunnel. The loop comes affixed with a choice of either standard or large titanium buttons. Button size allows a choice to utilize conventional stepped femoral tunnels or a single diameter femoral tunnel often necessary in revision procedures. Either choice provides the strength and stiffness required for successful ACL and PCL reconstruction.
The system does not require adopting a new surgical technique or additional instrumentation. In fact, GFS Ultimate can be used with transtibial and anterio-medial approaches, with outside-in instrumentation and reverse cutting tunnel instrumentation. In addition to its strong performance, the GFS Ultimate helps reduce inventory and simplifies the surgical procedure making it the ultimate value.
