NFL All-Pro Linebacker Shawne Merriman speaks at Cayenne Medical booth during AANA
Shawne Merriman, notorious for electrifying hits and relentless sacks on the football field, made time to speak with orthopaedic surgeons in the Cayenne Medical booth at the Arthroscopy Association of North America annual meeting. Merriman answered questions about his fast recovery after having both his PCL and LCL reconstructed using the AperFix System.
