  • Artificial ligaments applied in anterior cruciate ligament repair and reconstruction: Current products and experience

    The application of artificial ligament products in anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) surgeries has gone through a long twisty way. In the 1970s, early artificial ligament products were initially used for ACL surgeries, which showed poor clinical efficacy and eventually ended up in failure. Over the last 20 years, there has been a growing number of ACL reconstruction with new artificial ligament products, including the Leeds-KeioTM, the LARSTM (Ligament Advanced Reinfocement System), and the Trevira HochfestTM. Among these new products, the LARSTM has been more commonly applied for ACL surgeries. Although these new artificial ligament products have good mechanical properties and show significant improvement of cumulative failure and complication rate, they still have limitations.
