The potential of using semitendinosus tendon as autograft in rabbit meniscus reconstruction

Abstract Since transplantation of meniscal allograft or artificial menisci is limited by graft sources and a series of adverse events, substitution for meniscus reconstruction still needs to be explored. Natural biomaterials, which can provide a unique 3-D microenvironment, remain a promising altern...
