Conditions

ACL Injury

Brief summary

The goal of this study is to determine whether the use of injectable osteoinductive/osteoconductive compounds (OOC) during Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) reconstructive surgery, combined with an accelerated rehabilitation protocol (ARP) provides clinical outcomes superior to those attained via traditional ACL reconstruction and delayed rehabilitation protocols.

Interventions

DRUGOOC

The OOC will be mixed with autologous 5cc of platelet rich plasma (PRP), and then injected using a syringe into both tibia and femoral tunnels
