More than 700 clinics all over the world have experience of Artelon® implants. We work closely with clinicians in orthopedics and odontology. Their opinion today and your opinion tomorrow mean everything to us.
“I have been using Artelon® Tissue Reinforcement in two types of surgical procedures. At rotator cuff repair the triangular defects in old, complete ruptures were reinforced and closed with the mesh. When doing the Weaver-Dunn procedure, due to chronic dislocation of the lateral clavicle, the ligament between the coracoid and the clavicle can be reinforced and reconstructed. Artelon® Tissue Reinforcement gives an augmentation during the entire healing period 3-6 months and the patient can be permitted to start exercises earlier.”

“For thumb base osteoarthritis there is no optimal treatment available. For this purpose Artelon® is a perfect biomaterial thanks to its slow rate of degradation and that it provides a scaffold for tissue ingrowth. The tissue-preserving Artelon® Spacer concept, where resected bone and cartilage is replaced, offers a new opportunity for the treatment of thumb base osteoarthritis.”

“For over ten years I have been using Artelon® as an augmentation in the surgical treatment of ligament, tendon and joint capsule injuries and will continue to do so.”
