Product Overview
Designed for use in various arthroscopic hip procedures
For articular lesions, the curettes can help to remove remnants of the calcified layer, preparing the bony bed for microfracture. They also allow excision of the fragmented articular edges, creating stable cartilage shoulders around the defect. They are useful for debridement as well.
In femoroplasty for surgical correction of cam impingement, the curettes are used to help excise the fibrocartilaginous tissue that covers the abnormal bone. Precise excision of this overlying soft tissue layer demarcates the edges and provides the templates of excision for the abnormal bone.
The versatile elevators allow freeing up of soft tissue around bone, can assist in removing the fibrous layer off of a cam lesion, and can be used to help elevate the capsule. They are also useful for mobilizing the labrum in preparation for repair or acetabular rim trimming.
