Purpose To determine the effect of remnant preservation on the healing of anterior cruciate
ligament (ACL) tendon graft after reconstruction in an animal model. Methods Fifty-two New …

Background Most of the previous comparative studies between patellar tendon and
hamstring tendon anterior cruciate ligament grafts compared grafts of different constructs …

The aim of the study was to compare the results after arthroscopic anterior cruciate ligament
(ACL) reconstruction using central-third, bone-patellar tendon-bone (BPTB Group)(n= 45) …

The bone-tendon-bone (BTB) autograft is widely used for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL)
reconstruction. However, the primary disadvantages of this technique include postoperative …

Background The purpose of this study was to elucidate the effects of the difference of initial
graft tension on the femorotibial relationship on an axial plane and its chronological change …

Background Posterior laxity occurring after posterior cruciate ligament reconstruction with a
tibial tunnel could be related to thinning and permanent elongation of the graft as it is …

Background: The optimal graft choice between the bone–patellar tendon–bone (BPTB) and
the quadriceps tendon remains controversial. Studies evaluating the microscopic anatomy of …

Purpose: Tendon-to-bone healing of soft-tissue grafts has been described to progress by the
development of a fibrous interzone that undergoes a maturation process leading to the …

This study outlines the early morphologic phenomenon of tendon to bone healing in the
rabbit model. Twelve skeletally mature, male New Zealand White rabbits received …

INTRODUCTION: Soft tissue grafts have attracted increasing attention in anterior cruciate
ligament (ACL) reconstruction and offer a number of advantages Therefore, it can also be …
