Foreign body reaction to a bioabsorbable interference screw after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction

摘要

Bioabsorbable interference screws have been effective for graft fixation in anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. The overall complication rate associated with the use of these screws is low but some unique problems have been reported in the literature. We present a case of unusual tissue reaction to a bioabsorbable interference screw following ACL reconstruction.
