The Teno Fix® System uses a novel
soft-tissue anchor system and a multifilament stainless steel suture. The soft-tissue
anchor is installed into each end of the lacerated tendon, gathering collagen fibers as it
turns. A suture is then inserted through the anchor and the severed tendon ends
are reattached.
Tendon repairs with the Teno Fix suture have lower rupture rates and similar functional
outcomes when compared with conventional repair, particularly in patients who are noncompliant
with the rehabilitation protocol.
