Procedure

For primary and revision ligament repairs and reconstruction procedures, a variety of tendon allografts—including a wide portfolio of presutured tendons—are available. &nbsp;Allograft tendons provide many benefits compared to autograft tendons in reconstructive procedures, including less donor-site morbidity,1,2 fewer incisions, shorter operative time,1,2 larger and predictable graft sizes,2 and decreased postoperative pain and stiffness.2&nbsp;
 
Choose from sterile or aseptically processed tendons. Sterile tendons from our tissue bank alliance partners are rendered sterile without biomechanical or biochemical changes to the tissue.&nbsp;
 
Presutured constructs are an off-the-shelf solution requiring minimal preparation time while providing surgeons with a high-quality, consistent, sterile, and strong allograft tendon.&nbsp;
