Abstract:
A system for forming a tendon-bone graft. The system can include a support member that is adapted to support the tendon-bone graft. The system can further include a first clamp that is adapted to engage the support member and the tendon-bone graft to orient and hold the tendon-bone graft on the support member in a first direction, and a second clamp that is adapted to engage the tendon-bone graft to clamp the tendon-bone graft to the support member in a second direction. The system can also include a shaping member that is operable to resect the tendon-bone graft. The shaping member can be moveable relative to at least one of the first clamp and the second clamp to resect the tendon-bone graft.
