Abstract
Load to failure and stiffness was significantly different between the ACL fixation techniques. All but one of the fixation techniques showed sufficient properties for adequate postoperative rehabilitation. Bone cement used as a fixation device in soft tissue grafts did not seem to provide adequate initial fixation suitable for early rehabilitation after ACL reconstruction.
