Isometric reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament: femoral and tibial tunnel placement (Ligament and Ligamentoplasties – Springer – 1996)
This chapter presents the development and clinical implementation of isometric surgical insertion for an ACL replacement. Definitions of both extrinsic and intrinsic isometry are first provided. Methodology and results of experimental data used to determine isometric surgical placement are presented, followed by a description of the corresponding clinical implementation of the proposed technique.
Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction With LARS Artificial Ligament: A Multicenter Study With 3- to 5-Year Follow-up (2010)
Purpose: The aim of this multicenter study was to evaluate the clinical outcome of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction by use of the Ligament Advanced Reinforcement System (LARS) artificial ligament (Surgical Implants and Devices, Arc-sur-Tille, France) with 3- to 5-year follow-up.

Intra-articular Z-lig implant restores feline stifle stability in an ex vivo cruciate insufficiency model – Université de Copenhague – Mars 2023
Objective : To determine stifle joint stability after intra-articular reconstruction (IAR) of the transected cranial cruciate ligament (CCL) using an ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene graft (Z-Lig) in a novel limb press model, and to report simulated muscle force ratios before and aer repair.
