ABSTRACT:
A device for assisting in repair of a severed tendon comprises a main tube for insertion between a replacement tendon and its sheath, and a plurality of passages extending transversely of the bore of the main tube and communicating therewith, through which passages a blood supply from the sheath to the replacement tendon is established. The lengths of the passages are such that free movement between the tendon and its sheath is permitted after the blood supply is established.
