Anterior Cruciate Ligament Repair: Surgical Technique Using Augmentation With Biocomposite Scaffold

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Repair of the anterior cruciate ligament has recently regained interest over the past decade. Such repairs can be augmented with nonabsorbable suture for strength or biologic scaffolds to promote healing. This technique uses the BioBrace, a porous 3‐dimensional collagen scaffold made from bioresorbable bovine type I collagen that is reinforced
