Resizing and Reshaping Anterior Cruciate Ligament Stump Tissue Does Not Compromise Cell Viability, and Infiltration Into Patellar Tendon Grafts Does Not Compromise Tensile Properties
Evaluation of the biomechanical properties of a graft injected with minimally manipulated biologic material obtained at the time of harvest may provide laboratory data on the procedure's safety and viability as a direct delivery method for ACL grafts. These data could contribute to future studies involving clinical application during ACL reconstruction.
