Promotion of Medial Collateral Ligament Healing Using a High-Voltage Electrical Field
Purpose. To assess the biomechanical and histological effects of a high-voltage electrical field on ligament healing. Methods. 54 male Wistar rats were used. The medial collateral ligaments (MCLs) of 6 rats were measured for normal biomechanical failure load and stiffness. MCLs of the remaining 48 r...
