Conmed Manual Obturator/Manual Piston MA1100-021
The Manual Obturator/Manual Piston MA1100‑021 is a hand‑operated tool used in conjunction with the Meniscus Arrow instrument set for meniscal repair procedures. It helps deploy or seat the implant manually through a cannula during arthroscopic or open surgery. The instrument is designed to provide tactile feedback and precise control in the fixation process.
This instrument is engineered to engage with the cannula tip and the implant (such as the Meniscus Arrow) to ensure correct seating and anchoring within the meniscus tissue. It allows the surgeon to apply controlled force manually, reducing reliance on powered instruments and preserving the delicate tissue environment. The obturator/piston mechanism facilitates smooth implant advancement while maintaining the cannula’s position for accurate placement. By integrating seamlessly into the manual instrument set, it supports faster workflow and efficient repair of tears in the vascular zones of the meniscus.
