Feasibility Study of the Elaboration of a Biodegradable and Bioactive Ligament Made of Poly(ε-caprolactone)-pNaSS Grafted Fibers for the Reconstruction of Anterior Cruciate Ligament: In Vivo Experiment

The anterior cruciate ligament rupture is a common injury which mainly affects young and active population. Faced to this problem, the development of synthetic structures for ligament reconstruction is increasing. The most recent researches focused on the development of biodegradable structures that could be functionalized to enhance host integration. This work describes the elaboration of different poly(ε-caprolactone) prototypes for the rat...
