Biointegration of anterior cruciate ligament protesis made of polyethylene tetraftalate in late postoperation period

[Notes from practice]
Victor Bogatov; Alexey Vladimirovich Lychagin; Vyacheslav Germanov;

The purpose of the study was to show the long – term results of biointegration of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) prosthesis made of polyethylene tetraphthalate (PET) in the human knee joint tissue on a clinical example. The intraoperative material of the ACL prosthesis was obtained from a patient who received a repeated knee joint injury, which required replacement of the implant. Histological studies of the sample, which was implanted into the human knee joint for 2 years, were performed. It was shown that the prosthesis of ACL made of PET is capable of biointegration and restructuring into a structure similar in its cellular composition to the ligament. There was no cellular reaction of foreign material rejection and polymer degradation under the influence of proteases. Pet-based polymers have good biocompatibility with human knee joint tissues.
