Independent Suture Tape Internal Brace Reinforcement of Bone-Patellar Tendon-Bone Allografts: Biomechanical Assessment in a Full-ACL Reconstruction Laboratory Model (2020)

Abstract: Internal bracing for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) surgery is a relatively new concept. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of an “independent” button-fixed internal brace on the biomechanical properties of ACL reconstruction in a full-construct experimental model. Three groups (n = 10 each) were tested in a full-construct porcine-bone model…
