Demonstration of Neovascularization of Anterior Cruciate Ligament/allografts Utilizing the Epoxy Injection Method

چکیده
In order to determine the yascularization of cranial (anterior) cruciate ligament (ACL) allografts, six white New Zealand rabbits underwent ACL allotransplantation. The animals were sacrificed at 6, 12 and 24 weeks postoperatively, and their hind limb vessels were injected with an epoxy resin and cut with a cryomicrotome. The blood supply of the ACL allograft was shown to arise mainly from the infrapatellar fat pad and the hypertrophied synovial membrane.
