Abstract

Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries and subsequent surgical reconstruction are exceedingly common orthopaedic procedures. Surgical technique and graft preparation techniques continue to evolve as surgeons seek to increase surgical outcomes and decrease recovery time. As such, there is significant interest in identifying tools and techniques that may enhance the surgical process for patients undergoing an ACL reconstruction. Recently, there has been significant interest in evaluating biologic scaffolds that may augment graft healing. This Technical Note describes our technique for the preparation of a bone-patellar tendon-bone ACL graft with a BioBrace biocomposite scaffold augmentation.
