Biomechanical properties of adjustable extracortical graft fixations in ACL reconstruction

Biomechanical properties of adjustable extracortical graft fixations in ACL reconstruction

Abstract Background Reliable biomechanical data about the strength of different tibial extracortical graft fixation devices is sparse. This biomechanical study compares the properties of tibial graft fixation in ACL reconstruction with either the ACL Tight Rope™ or the Rigid Loop Adjustable™ device....
