Currently, there are no standard ways of restoring ACL in the rabbit model under research settings. Our design aims to provide a standardized method for rabbit ACL reconstruction procedures that could be utilized in most research. Researchers would be able to use our procedures to provide similar outputs that would suit their needs.
The current ACL reconstruction methods may not be able to produce optimal results by having intrusive procedures, a long recovery time, low biomechanical restoration compared to the original property, and a high rate of revisiting surgeries after the first attempt. In addition, the current surgical procedures of ACL reconstruction cannot ensure the full restoration of biomechanical properties of the knee joint, resulting in a significant rate of failure, revision surgeries, and a long recovery time.
Our design aims to improve the current ACL ACL reconstruction methods by implementing standardized procedures that would accurately restore the native ACL with its full original biomechanical properties without hte needs of repeting surgeries.
