The 31st SECEC/ESSSE Congress takes place in Munich on 4-6 September 2024 and it’s the annual congress of the European Society of Shoulder and Elbow Surgery. It’s one of the most important appointments for shoulder surgeons around Europe and around the Globe.
Visit our booth and don't forget to register to receive the latest evidence!
Smith & Nephew is glad to support the 31st SECEC 2024 congress and to promote our most advanced technologies which redefine shoulder repair: ADVANCED HEALING PORTFOLIO which includes REGENETEN, HEALICOIL Family of anchors and REGENESORB, and the INSTABILITY EXCELLENCE portfolio which includes OSTEOCONNECT techniques and the recently launched Q-FIX with MINITAPE.
During the congress Smith & Nephew will showcase our latest technologies at the booth and during 2 workshops which are focused on the ADVANCED HEALING portfolio and on the OSTEOCONNECT techniques.
The REGENETEN Bioinductive Implant supports the body’s natural healing response to promote new tendon-like tissue growth and change the course of tear progression.1, 2, 9–11 Derived from highly purified bovine Achilles tendon, it creates an environment that is conducive to healing.1, 2, 9, 27
The unique open-architecture design of HEALICOIL anchors reduces the amount of implanted material in the shoulder compared to traditional, solid-core anchors.28
Effective absorption and bone replacement in 24 months.6–8* REGENESORB material is designed to provide a jump start in bone healing and formation.
Elevate your expertise for shoulder instability repairs. With solutions ranging from simple to complex, Smith+Nephew’s Instability Excellence portfolio is setting new standards to take you to the next level while returning your patients to peak performance.
No matter the repair, the procedure or the pathology, Smith+Nephew’s Instability Excellence portfolio has you covered.
Regardless of the complexity, you’ll find solutions around the entirety of the glenoid including; soft tissue repairs and complex instability repairs. Explore our portfolio below.
