Project Description : The Achilles tendon is a popular allograft option for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. Structurally, the tendon is known to have a 90-degree rotational fiber track. Preparation techniques, with this consideration, may influence the strength of the graft. This study aims to assess the tensile strength of a novel Achilles tendon allograft harvest procedure following the rotational fiber track.
