  • Title: Augmentation of acute rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament.
    Author: Larson RL.
    Journal: Orthop Clin North Am; 1985 Jan; 16(1):135-42. PubMed ID: 3969273.
    Abstract:
    Acute repair and augmentation of anterior cruciate ligament rupture is indicated in the active individual who is going to place excessive demands on the knee. Repair of any other ligament injury with the addition of augmentation of the anterior cruciate ligament repair provides a better chance for functional stability and lessens the incidence of secondary meniscal injury.
