In vivo ligament repair with an inter positional allograft and treatment with hyaluronic aci

Healing ligament mechanical properties are improved by repair with interpositional allografts but not by concomitant treatment with hyaluronic acid.

Article specifications

This clinical study was published in 2009 in Journal of J Orthop Res. (IF 2017:3.14) by Canadian specialists. The purpose of this study was to investigate if in vivo ligament repair with an interpositional allograft and treatment with hyaluronic acid (HA) would improve the mechanical properties of a medial collateral ligament (MCL) healing from a gap injury.

 

Results

Inter positional allografts could enhance some mechanical properties of ligament healing but HA, in the way we applied it, did not produce an obvious improvement.
