## Abstract The effect of a partial medial meniscectomy and anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) transection on medial collateral ligament (MCL) healing was studied in skeletally mature rabbits. Two groups of animals, group I (isolated MCL rupture) and group II (MCL rupture with ACL transection and par
## Abstract The early histological, biochemical, and biomechanical characteristics of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) were determined in a rabbit model of acute hemarthrosis. The ACLs of 19 rabbits were given seven consecutive daily knee injections of 2 ml of fresh autologous blood, and then c
## Abstract In this study, the shortโterm effects of immobilization on joint damage and medial collateral ligament (MCL) healing were investigated in unstable, anterior cruciate ligament (ACL)โdeficient knees in rabbits. Fortyโsix 12โmonthโold female New Zealand white rabbits were separated into th
