| 发明名称 | Method of tendon repair with amnion and chorion constructs | ||
| 摘要 | It is described a construct for use in surgical repair of tendon. The construct contains at least one layer of human amnion and chorion tissues and is generally cylindrical with a C-shaped cross-section to allow for ease of implantation over the tendon. Methods for preparing the construct is described. In addition, an improved method for surgical repair of a damaged or diseased tendon using the construct is also described. The improved method reduces adhesions, scar formation, inflammation and risk of post-operative infection. | ||

| 主权项 | 1. A method of performing surgical repair of a diseased or damaged tendon in a subject, comprising: (a) surgically repairing the diseased or damaged tendon to obtain a surgically repaired tendon in the subject; and (b) applying a construct comprising an allograft comprising at least one layer of human amnion and chorion tissues over the surgically repaired tendon prior to wound closing,wherein the construct is generally cylindrical with a C-shaped cross-section to allow for ease of implantation over the tendon. | ||
