Nonsutured Sterile Tendons
Single Strand Tendon
Surgical reconstruction of smaller joints can be achieved utilizing single strand tendons. Stabilization of the ankle, and reconstruction of the MPFL, ALL or AC joint are commonly performed using the strong, yet small diameter single strand tendon.
Allograft Highlights
- Allows for various techniques
- Surgeons can predetermine diameter size of tunnels and graft length
- Eliminates additional pain and surgical scars from autograft harvesting
- Simplifies procedure versus autograft, potentially saving OR time and cost
