NEW YORK, Dec. 23, 2020 /PRNewswire/ There are two types of techniques used in the fixation of syndesmosis implant systems. While screw fixation is one technique that has been used over the years, the suture button technique is now trending in the syndesmosis implant systems market. A number of research studies conducted in order to determine the use of suture button implants and screw implants indicate that, suture button implants are more cost-effective as compared to screw implants. In addition, technological developments employed in suture button implants give them an edge over screw implants. For example, the Anthrax Tightrope is a suture button implant that offers adjustable cortical fixation for cruciate ligament reconstruction.

The global adhesion barriers market is currently witnessing strong growth. An adhesion barrier refers to a liquid-, gel- or film-based medical implant that is used by surgeons to minimize the risks of postoperative adhesion formation between internal organs. It is applied to a layer of tissues before sealing them, thus preventing the formation of scar tissues (adhesion) and separating the tissues from the organs. The synthetic adhesion barriers are manufactured using hyaluronic acid, regenerated cellulose and polyethylene glycol, whereas the natural variants are made using collagen, fibrin and proteins. They are most commonly used in abdominal, orthopedic, gynecological, reconstructive, cardiovascular and urological surgeries.
