• Flexible but inelastic material allows ring to conform to the normal physiologic function of the annulus
• Trigone markers assist in suture placement and positioning of ring Midline posterior marker assists in precise suture placement
• Tungsten and barium sulfate strings facilitate radiographic visualization Innovative spoked-ring holder is designed for easy one-cut release
• Open holder design of clear polysulfone provides excellent visibility
• Removable handle easily accommodates different implant styles
