CCL lateral suture system double swaged on line and needle. Some CCL deficient patients benefit from the use of double sutures.
This is particularly true of very large dogs and 100 lb line. Passing a second needle behind the fabella risks damaging the first
line and the peri fabellar structures which ultimately will hold the nylon sutures. Double line, Swaged-on sutures allow the
placement of two lines with one pass of the needle. Available as single sterile packs with or without crimps. The double line is
supplied swaged on as a loop and will, therefore, be of interest to those surgeons using the self-locking McKee/Miller knot (VCOT
1999/12:78- 80). For orthopedic CCL repair.
