Repairing Torn Tendons in the Hand or Wrist with Tenoplasty
Tenoplasty is a surgical procedure that is used to repair a torn tendon in the hand or wrist. The term "tenoplasty" comes from the Greek words "tenos," meaning tendon, and "plasty," meaning to shape or mold. During the procedure, the surgeon will make small incisions in the affected area and use specialized instruments to repair the damaged tendon. This can involve trimming or removing any damaged tissue, as well as reattaching the tendon to the appropriate bone or ligament. The goal of tenoplasty is to restore function and strength to the affected hand or wrist, and to alleviate pain and discomfort.
