tendon grafts

Tendon grafts involve replacing or repairing damaged tendons—the strong tissues that connect muscles to bones—by transplanting tissue from another part of the body or a donor. This procedure provides the necessary strength and flexibility to restore movement and function. The graft acts as a scaffold, integrating with surrounding tissues over time, enabling the repaired area to regain its stability. Tendon grafts are commonly used in surgeries for torn ligaments or failed repairs and aim to help patients return to normal use of the affected joint or limb.
