The specimens underwent a cyclic loading test (50-250 N applied for 1000 cycles at a frequency of 1 Hz), followed by a load-to-failure test. The slippage, stiffness, and ultimate failure loads were compared between the techniques.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>No differences in slippage were found during the cyclic loading test, and no graft fixation or tibial complex failures occurred during cyclic testing in either group. The transtibial tubercle fixation technique had higher ultimate failure loads (mean \u00b1 SD, 756.28 \u00b1 123.43 N) as compared with interference screw fixation (602.15 \u00b1 81.62 N; P &lt; .05).
