Step 7
Keep the knee in 90° of flexion and insert the Tibial
Screw over the Guide Wire until the tip of the Screw
engages the Sheaths (Figure 19).
• Use the “Easy Start” feature of the Tibial Screw by
aligning the flat tip parallel with the Sheaths prior
to deployment.
Step 8
With forward pressure, turn the Driver clockwise until
the screw head is flush with the superior rim of the
cortical wall. Maintain tension on the graft to prevent
loss of graft stiffness.
• The Tibial Screw threads match that of the Sheath,
therefore excessive torque is not needed to engage
and insert the Screw.
Step 9
Once the Tibial Screw is completely seated between
the Sheaths, remove the Driver by pulling the handle
straight back. Remove the Guide Wire (Figure 20).
• Confirm the integrity of the repair.
• Trim the excess suture and tendon flush with the
tibial surface.
