Biomechanical comparisons of anterior cruciate ligament: reconstruction procedures with flexor tendon graft
TL;DR: It is indicated that the flexor tendon graft can be an alternative substitute for the bone-patellar tendon-bone graft for ACL reconstruction, if the authors understand the biomechanical characteristics of each reconstruction procedure.

A Pilot Study of Anatomic Double-Bundle Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction With Ligament Remnant Tissue Preservation
TL;DR: The minimal 1-year clinical results of anatomic double-bundle anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction with ligament remnant tissue preservation were comparable to previously reported results of anatomy double- bundle reconstruction without remnant tissue preserved.
Interference screw fixation of doubled flexor tendon graft in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction – biomechanical evaluation with cyclic elongation

TL;DR: The present study has clarified that the advantage of the interference fixation for the doubled flexor tendon graft is the high linear stiffness of the FGT complex, and the disadvantage of this screw is the low ultimate failure load of theFGT complex.

Dynamic elongation behavior in the medial collateral and anterior cruciate ligaments during lateral impact loading.
TL;DR: It is indicated that contraction of the leg musculature would not protect the MCL and ACL from injury when a lateral impact load is applied to the knee and if a person can react rapidly enough to provide protective muscle forces in the case of such an impact.

The effect of graft-tunnel diameter disparity on intraosseous healing of the flexor tendon graft in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.
TL;DR: Graft-tunnel diameter disparity of up to 2 mm may not adversely affect intraosseous healing of the flexor tendon graft, and surgeons need not be overly concerned about minor graft-tunnels diameter disparities.
