I had previously asked about scar revision but I need to further clarify. The patient had an ACL revision with scar revision.
This is what the op note reads:"The previous cicatrix was excised, and then the skin incision extended proximally to facilitate harvesting the central third of the patellar tendon graft. The subcutaneous tissues were underminded on both sides of the cicatrix in order to have a later tendion-free closure."
Is this scar revision or graft harvesting?
