Long-term Absorption of β–Tricalcium Phosphate Poly-L-Lactic Acid Interference Screws

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the long-term in vivo degradation of biodegradable interference screws made of poly-L-lactic acid (PLLA) and β–tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP). Methods: Twenty patients undergoing patellar tendon autograft anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction fixe...
