The SuperBall® All-Suture Meniscal Repair System

SuperBall delivers strong fixation, procedural efficiency, and the control of an all-suture, all-inside technique. As the only all-inside system designed to replicate gold-standard inside-out tensioning, SuperBall gives surgeons greater consistency, improved reproducibility, and confidence in every repair.

Designed for Effective, Reliable Meniscus Repair

Key Features and Benefits

  • The Meniscal Repair System is the only all-inside device with a tensioning mechanism that mimics gold standard inside-out tensioning of the meniscus, addressing the #1 deployment problem of other devices.

  • The system’s proprietary repair suture mesh lays flat, protecting the repaired meniscus and the articulating cartilage. This avoids the “cheese wiring” cut-through effect of other devices that use high-strength suture.

  • The SuperBall technology enables extracapsular fixation to secure the repair and leaves no knots in the joint space.

  • The low profile crescent shaped needle creates a narrow cut preserving the structural integrity of the meniscus vs. other systems that create puncture holes potentially compromising the structural integrity of the meniscus.

Setting a New Gold Standard for All-Inside Tensioning

Addressing the Challenges of Existing All-Inside Devices

Technique At a Glance

The surgical technique is a three-part process, similar to traditional all-inside techniques. Refer to the full surgical technique for a complete guide and description of all steps.

Deployment - After setting the depth and releasing the safety, the needle is inserted through the meniscus and a first suture bundle is deployed, followed by positioning to the second site and deploying the second suture bundle.

Tensioning - Without removing the insertion device, the repair is tensioned gradually until sufficient tension is achieved, and then the tensioning suture is released using the red button.

Locking - The SuperBall is deployed and locked using the actuating suture. Only then is the insertion device removed, and the remaining actuating suture is cut flush to the meniscus.

Resources

The SuperBall Meniscus Repair System has been used by surgeons worldwide since 2020 in thousands of cases, with excellent feedback and results. Biomechanics studies and post-market clinical follow up reports indicate high levels of deployment reliability and consistently favorable clinical results.
