Fifty Years of ACL Biomechanics: What’s Next?

healing ACL between the animal models. The maximum failure strength of the repaired ACL in the canine model was only 11% of the intact ACL, while that in the monkey was 60%, most likely owing to the lack of control of rehabilitation in animal models. This additional finding emphasizes the importance of animal model selection when designing trans-lational studies of interventions to translate novel surgical procedures into human patients
