摘要Introduction: Magnesium (Mg) and alloys have been recognized as potential biodegradable materials in anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction due to promising effects on osteogenesis, angiogenesis, and tissue regeneration. However, one of the obstacles limiting the application of pure magnesium implant in clinic is that mechanical support is impaired at the rapid degradation phase after implanted in vivo. We innovatively designed a Mg-containing hybrid interference screw to maintain the mechanical strength while make good use of the biological effects of Mg.
Methods: Twenty-four skeletally mature Chinese mountain goats were divided into control group and Mg group, which were fixed with conventional titanium interference screw and Mg-containing hybrid interference screw to fix the graft in bone tunnel in ACL reconstruction, respectively.
Results: X-ray showed no signs of deformity or dislocation in both groups. For macroscopic evaluation, Mg group showed a relatively better outcome with more tissue connection and cartilage matrix at the tunnel aperture, which showed a higher Oswestry Arthroscopy Score than the control group at week 8 and week 16. HR-pQCT results showed greater BV/TV in the Mg group at both week 8 and week 16 compared to control group. At weeks 8 and 16, the tibial tunnel diameter in the Mg group was smaller than the control group.
Discussion and Conclusion: The innovative Mg-containing hybrid interference screw shows superior outcomes in terms of new bone formation around the bone tunnel than conventional interference screw, highlighting the great translational merit.
