Failure load of the femoral insertion site of the anterior cruciate ligament in a porcine model: comparison of different portions and knee flexion angles

Abstract Background This study compared the failure load of the femoral insertion site of the anterior cruciate ligament between different portions and knee flexion angles. Methods In total, 87 fresh-frozen, porcine knees were used in this study. Three knees were used for histological evaluation; th...
