ACL Injuries: Hamstring Tendon Graft Preparation for the GraftLink® Technique Using a TightRope® II Implant and the InternalBrace™ Technique
Patrick A. Smith, MD (Columbia, MO), demonstrates hamstring graft preparation for ACL reconstruction using the GraftLink® technique with a TightRope® II implant and the InternalBrace™ technique.
The InternalBrace surgical technique is intended only to augment the primary repair/reconstruction by expanding the area of tissue approximation during the healing period and is not intended as a replacement for the native ligament. The InternalBrace technique is for use during soft tissue-to-bone fixation procedures and is not cleared for bone-to-bone fixation.
