description A method and apparatus for joining opposite ends of a severed tendon or ligament. A core suture is attached to one of the severed ends. A cap is attached to the severed end by the core suture. The cap protects the severed end from trauma and fraying as it is pulled back toward the opposite severed end of the tendon. The cap is removed prior to reattachment of the severed ends. The cap may have a coating applied to it to reduce friction and add other properties such as improved healing to the tendon after it is reattached.
