The Arthrex AR-12540 Suture Retriever, Ø3.4 mm, Straight is a specialized surgical instrument used for controlled suture handling during arthroscopic procedures. Designed for use in minimally invasive orthopedic surgery, this instrument helps surgeons retrieve, guide, and manipulate sutures through small arthroscopy portals with accuracy and control.
According to Arthrex, the suture retriever is designed for atraumatic suture retrieval and manipulation during arthroscopic procedures. Its jaw design creates a closed loop that allows the suture to slide freely during extraction, while the specially designed tip helps separate parallel suture strands for easier retrieval. Arthrex also notes that its small diameter and low-profile design support access into tight joint spaces.
The AR-12540 model features a straight Ø3.4 mm shaft, making it suitable for procedures where direct access and precise suture control are required. Arthrex lists this item as part of the Elbow Arthroscopy Set and Shoulder Arthroscopy Instrument System, supporting its use in professional orthopedic and arthroscopic surgical workflows.
Built for trained surgical professionals, the Arthrex AR-12540 is commonly used in hospitals, orthopedic surgery centers, sports medicine facilities, and arthroscopy operating rooms. Its straight design, slim profile, and reliable suture-handling function make it a practical instrument for shoulder, elbow, and other joint-related arthroscopic procedures, depending on surgeon preference and procedure requirements.
