Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A bioactive scaffold for use in reconstruction of an anterior cruciate ligament of a patient, may include a tissue matrix configured to wrap around a graft configured to extend from a first bone of a joint to a second bone of the joint. The tissue matrix may include collagen type I. The tissue matrix may include a first plurality of apertures extending through the tissue matrix along a first edge of the tissue matrix and a second plurality of apertures extending through the tissue matrix along a second edge of the tissue matrix. At least one filament may be configured to be laced through the first plurality of apertures and the second plurality of apertures and draw the first edge of the tissue matrix toward the second edge of the tissue matrix when the at least one filament is subjected to tension thereby closing the tissue matrix around the graft.
