Introduction to Tensor Surgical's Shoulder Repair System

Tensor Surgical's transosseous arthroscopic Rotator cuff repair system can fix any cuff for the price of one anchor.

Every year, 500,000 Americans with an average age of 50 or more have Rotator cuff repair Surgery. Arthroscopic cuff repair is typically performed on an Outpatient basis.

Rotator cuff repair uses all suture or Suture anchors made of plastics, metal, or biocomposites.

Anchors have been shown to be the largest cost of the procedure with costs as high as $6000.

Clinical data shows little difference in clinical success rates between repair techniques.

Although Surgery with anchor implants was adopted due to ease of use, anchors are more expensive with increased patient Pain and the creation of bone voids, which can complicate revisions. In this value-based era of Medicine and bundling at ASCs, there is a significant need for a clinically effective solution that is affordable.

Multiple anchors are typically implanted to obtain transosseous equivalent repair, but this greatly increases cost.

transosseous tunneling provides for an easier repair to replace or augment anchors, one that is simple and bone sparing.

transosseous repair reduces Pain, allowing for fewer opioids and easier, less costly Revision surgery in this poor healing tendon.

The Tensor Surgical tunneler system has a non-disposable reusable tunneling device for transosseous repair which offers a simple procedure with two easy steps replacement or augmentation of anchors and bone sparing properties.

Excellent biology, double row anatomic footprint reconstruction, high strength suture. Improved healing characteristics demonstrated on MRI. No imaging artifacts and multiple low cost fixation points per surface area of tendon.

Tensor is the first and only reusable arthroscopic tunneling system with no foreign body implants.

Studies show the transosseous repair has excellent long-term clinical results with improved Postoperative Pain scores and a lower revision rate.

Tensor improves health outcomes at a significantly lower cost than anchors, reducing the need for additional procedures, physician visits, Revision surgery, and less opioids.
