Conmed Microfracture Awl, 45°, 190.5mm length 7202
The Microfracture Awl 45° 190.5 mm (catalog # 7202) is a surgical instrument designed for arthroscopic cartilage repair in hip and knee applications. It features a 45-degree angled tip for better access and a 190.5 mm shaft length for reaching tight joint spaces. It supports micro-fracture technique by creating controlled perforations in sub-chondral bone.
This Microfracture Awl (45° / 190.5 mm) allows surgeons to access anatomically challenging areas—such as the deep hip joint or certain knee compartments—with improved angulation and reach. The 45-degree tip helps align the instrument through arthroscopic portals while the moderate shaft length balances access and control. It facilitates the creation of micro-channels in the bone just beneath damaged cartilage, promoting blood flow and mesenchymal cell migration for cartilage repair. Designed for integration into orthopaedic arthroscopic instrument sets, it is compatible with standard cannulae and supports established sterilisation protocols.
