Successful anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction requires secure healing between tendon and bone.Bone morphogenetic protein-signaling plays an important role in tendon-to-bone healing. rhBMP-2, a powerful osteoinductive agent, can improve tendon-bone interdigitation.Controlled laboratory study.The study was designed 2 phases: Phase I consisted of dose-response where 21 New Zealand White rabbits underwent bilateral reconstructions. Rabbits received either rhBMP-2 (11.5, 50, or 115 microg)...
