High impact information on Bone-Patellar Tendon-Bone Graft

HYPOTHESIS: Biomechanical behaviors of the reconstruction that involves use of flexor tendons and an Endobutton are significantly different under cyclic loading from behaviors of the two standard reconstructions in which bone-patellar tendon-bone graft is used [1].
The objective of this study was to evaluate the initial fixation strength of a biodegradable interference screw compared with press-fit fixation and a titanium interference screw in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction using a bone-patellar tendon-bone graft [2].
We studied 20 ACL reconstructed patients (bone-patellar tendon-bone graft) and 15 matched controls with a six-camera optoelectronic system performing the examined movement [3].
The PCL and ACL were reconstructed arthroscopically with autogeneous bone-patellar tendon-bone graft [4].
Biomechanical comparison of human bone-patellar tendon-bone grafts after sterilization with peracetic acid ethanol [5].

Associations of Bone-Patellar Tendon-Bone Graft with chemical compounds

In this in-vitro biomechanical study, it was investigated if peracetic acid ethanol sterilization (PES) has any adverse effects on the mechanical properties of human bone-patellar tendon-bone grafts (BPTB) [5].

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of Bone-Patellar Tendon-Bone Graft

Twenty subjects who experienced acute ACL disruption and underwent reconstruction with a bone-patellar tendon-bone graft participated in a controlled rehabilitation program and were studied at a mean follow-up of 2 years [6].
