These were compared to 8 juvenile porcine knees that underwent ACL reconstruction with a BTB graft augmented with suture tape. All knees underwent biomechanical testing utilizing a dynamic tensile testing machine. Cyclic loading between 50\u2010250N was performed for 500 cycles at 1 Hz to simulate in\u00a0vivo ACL loads during the early rehabilitation phase. The grafts were displaced during load\u2010at\u2010failure tensile testing at 20 mm\/min.
