Biological fixation between calcium phosphate-hybridized tendon graft and tibial bone tunnel in anatomic single-bundle ACL reconstruction - A case report

We present the case of a 15-year-old female who underwent re-rupture following primary ACL reconstruction diagnosed by the second-look arthroscopy 9 months and 12 days after the surgery. At the joint aperture site, a firm biological fixation via direct bonding area, cartilaginous tissue, and dense collagen fiber were observed without the presence of a nonbonding gap area.
