Conmed 90° Top and Bottom Serrations C8536.1
The C8536.1 rasp is a reusable arthroscopic instrument with 90° serrations on both the top and bottom surfaces, designed for preparation of meniscal tear surfaces. It is part of the Zone Specific II meniscal repair system by ConMed Corporation. The dual-sided 90° serration promotes effective debridement of both superior and inferior meniscal surfaces during repair.
This instrument is engineered to abrade the meniscal tear edges and adjacent capsule tissue using vigorous 90° serrations on both sides, enhancing biological healing by stimulating vascular response. By providing serrated surfaces both on top and on bottom, it allows the surgeon to engage both meniscal surfaces in one tool, improving efficiency and reproducibility. It is designed for compatibility with the Zone Specific II repair kit and supports the inside-out meniscal repair technique. Proper preparation of both sides of the tear using the C8536.1 can help improve suture fixation, reduce residual gap and ultimately support better healing outcomes.
