Conmed BioScrew Bioabsorbable Interference Screws 10mm x 25mm C8022
The BioScrew Bioabsorbable Interference Screw 10 mm x 25 mm (Catalog #C8022) is a resorbable implant used to fix soft tissue grafts inside bone tunnels. It is made from Poly (L-Lactic Acid) to provide initial mechanical stability. Over time, the screw degrades and is replaced by bone, reducing long-term hardware presence.
The BioScrew C8022 is designed for ligament reconstruction (such as ACL or PCL) where graft-to-bone fixation is critical. Its bioabsorbable polymer structure provides initial fixation strength comparable to metal screws while allowing biological remodeling. As healing proceeds, the implant gradually resorbs and is replaced by natural bone, alleviating the need for removal and minimizing imaging interference. Surgeons appreciate its predictable degradation profile and availability in standard sizes for matching graft and tunnel dimensions.
