Stay in the Game: Arthrex Innovation Helps Football Player Get Back on the Field

Wishing good luck to ‪@universityofvirginia‬ running back Kobe Pace as he kicks off a new #CollegeFootball season.
Kobe is back on the field following a syndesmosis injury, often called a high ankle sprain, sustained during his junior year at Clemson University.
Thanks to his surgeon, Steve Martin, MD, and the #Arthrex TightRope® system augmented with the InternalBrace™ technique, Kobe was back on the field just four weeks after surgery.
“I feel like I can move faster and better than before,” he said.

The InternalBrace surgical technique is intended only to augment the primary repair/reconstruction by expanding the area of tissue approximation during the healing period and is not intended as a replacement for the native ligament. The InternalBrace technique is for use during soft tissue-to-bone fixation procedures and is not cleared for bone-to-bone fixation.
Postoperative management is patient-specific and dependent on the treating professional’s assessment. Individual results will vary and not all patients will experience the same postoperative activity level or outcomes.
