Tendons are the strong, cord-like tissues that connect muscles to bones. When they are cut, torn, or ruptured, movement becomes difficult — or even impossible. At Grandville Medical & Laser, we provide specialist surgical tendon repair, particularly for complex hand injuries, sports-related trauma, or post-accident reconstructions.

Our goal is simple: restore mobility, strength, and fine motor control — whether in fingers, hands, wrists, ankles, or other areas.

Common Tendon Injuries We Treat

✅ Flexor tendon injuries (e.g., from glass or knife cuts in the palm or fingers)

✅ Extensor tendon injuries (on the back of the hand or wrist)

✅ Tendon rupture due to trauma or degeneration (e.g., Achilles, biceps)

✅ Crush injuries with partial tendon avulsion

✅ Delayed or failed healing from previous tendon surgery

✅ Tendon adhesions or stiffness following immobilization

Symptoms of a Tendon Injury

You may have a tendon injury if you notice:

•Inability to bend or straighten a joint (especially in fingers)

•Sudden snap or tear during activity

•Pain, swelling, or bruising over a tendon

•Loss of grip strength or dexterity

•Visible gaping wound with exposed tissue or bone

Our Approach to Tendon Repair

🔹 Diagnosis

•Clinical examination, functional testing

•Ultrasound or MRI when needed

•Wound exploration in penetrating injuries

🔹 Surgical Repair

•Performed under local, regional, or general anesthesia

•Microsurgical or standard suture techniques for precision

•Tendons may be repaired, reinforced, or grafted (if tissue loss exists)

•Protective splinting after surgery to preserve alignment

🔹 Post-Op Rehabilitation

•Early physiotherapy and tendon gliding exercises

•Splint adjustment and progressive range of motion

•Monitoring for adhesions or re-rupture risks
