Abstract The present report describes the mechanical tests, in vitro and in vivo studies of a poly(urethane urea) (PUUR) intended for clinical use in anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. In the mechanical tests, no evidence of severe fatigue was observed after repeated cyclic loading. Testings for mutagenicity and delayed contact hypersensitivity were found negative. Three in vivo studies were performed in rabbits and minipigs. Altogether 35 rabbits were operated upon in (1) an intraarticular implantation study, performed to evaluate the soft tissue response to woven bands and fiber bundles of PUUR and (2) a rabbit ACL study, examining the function of the PUUR ACL replacement and the tissue response to the material. In a third study, PUUR ACL replacement in minipigs was evaluated. Taken together, ingrowth of connective tissue in close contact with the PUUR fibers was detected both in rabbits and minipigs. The first clear histological signs of degradation of the polymer was detected after 24 months. In conclusion, the evaluated mechanical properties of the PUUR band correspond to those of the mature, human ACL. Furthermore, both from a histological and functional point of view, the PUUR woven band show interesting properties for future clinical ACL reconstructions.

About National Digital Library of India (NDLI)
NDLI logo

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
