Non-Bone Tendons

Non-bone tendons are sterilized through the BioCleanse® Tissue Sterilization Process without the use of irradiation. Non-bone tendons used in ACL reconstruction procedures allow for multiple fixation techniques.

Overview & Features


NON-BONE TENDONS

Sterilized without irradiation through the BioCleanse® Tissue Sterilization Process

  • Preservation: Frozen
  • Non-bone tendons are interchangeable as graft options. Literature suggests biomechanical
    properties are dependent upon the diameter of tendon not graft type.1
  • BioCleanse processed non-bone tendons are carefully pre-trimmed at proximal and distal ends
    • Results in robust grafts for suturing
