The Use of Suture Augmentation for Graft Protection in ACL Reconstruction: A Biomechanical Study in Porcine Knees

Purpose: To biomechanically evaluate the use of the suture augmentation construct at time 0 of ACL reconstruction. Methods: Eighty porcine knees underwent ACL reconstruction using 2 techniques for graft fixation: a single suspensory construct (SSC), performed with a femoral button and tibial interfe...
