| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstructions using autologous tendon tissue reinforced by tubular titanium web (TW) of titanium microfibers were performed in knee joints of miniature swine. At 4 and 15 weeks, tendon/ligament maturation in the reconstructed ACLs (r-ACL) was observed; this indicated that TW facilitates attachment of tendon/ligament and bone. Furthermore, maturation process of collagen, the main structural element of bony- and tendon-like tissue forming within the titanium web was not impaired and normal patterns of tissue-specific collagen cross-links were found within the tissue matrix. These findings confirm that TW is an effective material for reconstructions of tendon/ligament-bone junctions.
