Abstract
This cadaveric study compares the biomechanical properties of femoral graft fixation in ACL reconstruction of either quadriceps or hamstring tendon grafts with four different interference screws. The hypothesis was that quadriceps tendon grafts provide at least equal results concerning gap formation during cyclic loading and ultimate failure load compared to hamstring tendon grafts with four different interference screws. Eighty porcine femora...
