Abstract
Results suggest that rather than the choice of reconstruction technique, stiffness and pre-strain of the ACL reconstruction affect the motion and mechanics of the operated knee. We suggest that an optimal choice of graft properties might help restore normal knee joint function and cartilage responses, thus, minimizing the risk of osteoarthritis.
