The Stryker 234-010-093 9mm Biosteon ACL Screw Tap is a precision-engineered surgical instrument designed to facilitate the secure fixation of grafts during anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction procedures. Crafted to create precise internal threads in bone tunnels, this tap ensures optimal placement and stability when used in conjunction with Biosteon interference screws. Its compatibility with 9mm x 23mm and 9mm x 28mm Biosteon screws makes it a versatile tool for various surgical scenarios, accommodating different graft sizes and patient anatomies.

Constructed from high-quality materials, the 234-010-093 tap offers exceptional durability and resistance to wear, making it suitable for repeated use in demanding surgical environments. The tap's design allows for efficient and controlled threading, contributing to enhanced surgical outcomes. With an overall length of 8-1/2 inches, the tap provides surgeons with the necessary reach and maneuverability to perform procedures with precision, ensuring accurate placement of grafts and minimizing potential complications.

Incorporating the Biosteon screw system, the 234-010-093 tap supports the use of bioabsorbable interference screws composed of hydroxyapatite and poly-L-lactide (PLLA). These materials offer osteoconductive properties, promoting bone healing and integration. The combination of the tap and Biosteon screws ensures a reliable fixation method that is gradually resorbed by the body, reducing the need for secondary surgeries. This synergy underscores the tap's role in advancing ACL reconstruction techniques, providing both functionality and patient-centered benefits.

These surgical instruments have been previously used and show visible signs of wear consistent with their prior usage. Despite these signs, they remain in a usable condition, suitable for continued medical procedures.
