Surgically implantable skeletal ligament having secured thereto at least one deformable collar having a velour-like outer surface adapted to invite tissue ingrowth. In use, the collar portion of the ligament is positioned within a surgically prepared passageway in a bone to protect the ligament from bone abrasion and to assist in ligament attachment by accepting tissue ingrowth into the velour-like surface.
