ORIGINS

Board-certified hand surgeon Jeanne L. DelSignore, MD—co-developer of the Anchor Line™ CMC Suspensionplasty System—pioneered the Suture Suspension Arthroplasty (SSA) technique in 2009.¹ Her landmark 12- to 14-year follow-up study demonstrated durable outcomes² and received the 2021 ASSH Sumner Koch Award for its potential to create significant future clinical impact. The Anchor Line™ CMC Suspensionplasty System builds upon this award-winning approach to provide a highly reproducible, stable, bone-to-bone suture suspension repair.

ENGINEERING

Anatomical Reconstruction: Designed to restore native TMC joint kinematics and metacarpal height, without tendon graft harvest or weaving.
Controlled Tensioning: The proprietary Falcon Suture Clutch enables incremental, dynamic tensioning with provisional fixation before final knot lock.
Stable Metacarpal Alignment: Engineered to maintain vector alignment between the first and second metacarpal bases, supporting the sling through ligamentous healing.

ADVANTAGES

Patient Incision Site: Single incision
Patient Comfort: No exposed hardware
Patient Procedure Simplicity: No multiple suture strands to manage
Patient Tissue Preservation: No tendon harvesting or weaving
Patient Joint Stability: Titanium suture anchor fixation
Patient Surgical Precision: Anchor placement at the index metacarpal facet (radial to FCR insertion) and intra-articular thumb metacarpal base
Patient Rehabilitation Timeline: Early passive motion possible, as early as 2 weeks in some cases
Patient Recovery Rate: Potentially faster return to normal function
Patient Procedure Duration: Operative time may be reduced vs. traditional LRTI, up to 67% in some cases
