  • Title: [Arthroscopic studies of pedicled autogenic tendon grafts for the replacement of the anterior cruciate ligament].
    Author: Wentzensen A, Weller S.
    Journal: Chirurg; 1982 Apr; 53(4):225-8. PubMed ID: 7083965.
    Abstract:
    Combined knee ligament instabilities with injury of the anterior cruciate ligament need reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament as a central pivot. Our investigations show that after reconstruction with pedicle autogenous tendon grafts, a viable transplant does occur if certain technical principles are taken into account. The surviving transplants show typical fiber structure and synovial vessels. Tension was tested by clinical draw-forward sign and a hook.
