Parcus Medical™ products are developed by combining decades of engineering and business experience with the talent and knowledge of leading orthopedic surgeons. Parcus Medical offers the widest selection in the industry of suture anchors manufactured from Invibio PEEK-OPTIMA™, carbon-fiber reinforced PEEK-OPTIMA, UHMWPE high strength suture, and titanium. Our product families include:
SLiK is a knotless screw-in anchor that can be used for a variety of applications. The primary indication is knotless fixation for rotator cuff repair. The SLiK anchors can be used as a standalone fixation for lateral row or can be combined with Parcus Braid™ Suture Tape for a knotless double-row rotator cuff repair. SLiK anchors provide a step-saving alternative to conventional “knotted” suture anchors and eliminate the “knot stacks” that can be associated with soft tissue irritation or impingement.
Distally, the product features a Suture Guide, designed to hold sutures deep into a bone socket, providing the ability to adjust suture tension prior to inserting the SLiK anchor. Suture tension is held constant during anchor insertion. An Activation Button on the inserter handle allows the anchor to be advanced into position using a simple, one-handed technique.
Recommended for use in both large and small-joint repairs.
Key Features
SLiK Fix is a screw ideally suited for tenodesis procedures. The design of SLiK Fix screws provides procedural advantages compared to other fixation methods.
The Tendon Washer and Trocar Tip allow one to engage and advance the tendon to the appropriate depth into the bone socket and assess tension of the tendon prior to inserting the screw. The Tendon Washer provides an increased surface area to prevent tendon pull-back. The SLiK Fix driver features an Activation Button that enables a simple, one-handed technique to advance the fixation screw.
Recommended for use in both large and small-joint repairs.
Key Features
Draw Tight Suture-Based Anchors are designed with a Parcus PEEK Power Tip to deliver improved insertion and a solid core for stronger fixation. They incorporate a set of Parcus Braid high strength deployment sutures that provide surgeons with a tactile confirmation the anchor has been successfully deployed.
Key Features:
Twist & Triple Twist PEEK Screw-In Suture Anchors combine the strength of fully-threaded screw-in design with the image artifact reduction of PEEK-OPTIMA Natural material. Because the threads continue along the full length of the anchor, they provide strong cortical fixation and reduce the risk of "pull-back."
Made of PEEK-OPTIMA Natural, Twist PEEK Screw-In Suture Anchors are non-absorbable, radiolucent, and MR safe.
Recommended for use in both large and small-joint repairs.
Key Features:
Made of carbon fiber-reinforced PEEK-OPTIMA, PEEK CF Push-In Suture Anchors are non-absorbable, radiolucent, and MR safe with a modulus of elasticity closely matching cortical bone.
Ideal for knotted fixation for shoulder instability or foot & ankle.
Key Features:
Knotless PEEK CF Push-In Suture Anchors provide a step-saving alternative to conventional "knotted" suture anchors and eliminate the "knot stacks" that can be associated with soft tissue irritation or impingement.

Key Features:
The small diameter and tremendous pull-out strength of MiTi Titanium Screw-In Suture Anchors make them a versatile tool for addressing a variety of small-joint applications.
Featuring an extended shaft, the MiTi XL is ideal for use in the arthroscopic management of shoulder instability.
Key Features:
Quick, easy, reliable - titanium implants such as the V-LoX & V-LoX³ Titanium Screw-In Suture Anchors set the standard for soft tissue fixation by delivering high strength and stability while reducing the need for drilling and tapping.
Recommended for use in both large and small-joint repairs.
Key Features:
Comprised of Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE), the Parcus Braid family of non-absorbable suture products are designed to meet the demands of the orthopedic surgeon.
Parcus Braid high strength suture is supplied in a variety of color combinations to help with suture management in complicated repairs. It is available in various needle and packaging options to address the requirements of open and arthroscopic surgical procedures.
Key Features:
Parcus was the first to combine the strength of carbon fiber-reinforced PEEK-OPTIMA with a proven fully-threaded profile to optimize fixation. A rounded edge was added to protect soft tissue grafts. A unique cannulated tapered square driver provides a positive driver-to-screw interface that distributes insertion torque and eliminates "driver capture" that often occurs with other polymer implants.
PEEK CF Interference screws are naturally lubricious, helping to minimize "graft clocking" experienced with other polymers. PEEK CF Interference Screws are non-absorbable and radiolucent with a modulus of elasticity closely matching cortical bone.
Key Features:
Parcus Titanium Interference Screws are made of 6AI-4V ELI titanium alloy, a material that has few rivals for clinical efficacy, strength, safety and biocompatibility.
The screws feature a rounded edge that protects soft tissue grafts and a fully-threaded design that can be used with both soft-tissue and BTB grafts.
Key Features:
The GFS II is provided with a braided high strength suture loop (UHMWPE) that is available in eight lengths from 12mm to 45mm. The UHWMPE loop is stronger and stiffer than polyethylene loops used by other manufacturers. It is pre-loaded with a color coded pulling suture and flipping suture, also made from UHMWPE.
The GFS II button is 16.5mm in length which can eliminate the stepped tunnel technique required by smaller buttons. It is an excellent choice for bailout or revision surgeries. Parcus Graft Fixation Systems are indicated for use in the fixation of ligament or tendon repairs.
Key Features:
The GFS Mini is provided with a braided high strength (UHWMPE) suture loop that is available in ten lengths from 12mm to 55mm. The UHWMPE loop is stronger and stiffer than polyethylene loops used by other manufacturers. It is pre-loaded with a color coded pulling suture and flipping suture, also made from UHMWPE.
The smaller button size, 12mm in length, requires a conventional stepped tunnel technique. Parcus Graft Fixation Systems are indicated for use in the fixation of ligament or tendon repairs.
Key Features:
The GFS Naked is designed to be adaptable to the needs of the surgeon, replacing the fixed loop with opportunity for a wider variety of fixation lengths. Just add Parcus Braid™ Suture or Suture Tape.
Parcus Graft Fixation Systems are indicated for use in the fixation of ligament or tendon repairs.
Key Features:
The GFS Ultimate is a top-of-the-line suspensory fixation device that combines the convenience of adjustability with the strength and stiffness of conventional fixed length loop devices. The proprietary Parcus design consists of an UHMWPE loop that is infinitely adjustable between 12mm and 60mm allowing it to fit in virtually any length tunnel. The loop comes affixed with a choice of either standard or large titanium buttons. Button size allows a choice to utilize conventional stepped femoral tunnels or a single diameter femoral tunnel often necessary in revision procedures. Either choice provides the strength and stiffness required for successful ACL and PCL reconstruction.
The system does not require adopting a new surgical technique or additional instrumentation. In fact, GFS Ultimate can be used with transtibial and anterio-medial approaches, with outside-in instrumentation and reverse cutting tunnel instrumentation. In addition to its strong performance, the GFS Ultimate helps reduce inventory and simplifies the surgical procedure making it the ultimate value.
Key Features:
Precise preparation of implant sites is critical to assuring excellent anchor performance. Parcus Shoulder Instrumentation provides the precision and ease of use that builds confidence with reproducible outcomes. The material selection and color coding of many of our most commonly used instruments is designed to reduce costs by providing a clear and easy method for surgical staff to recognize related devices. This has been found to be extremely helpful in the low-light situations experienced in the operating room during many arthroscopic surgeries.
