The SeriACL device was developed as an alternative to an autograft (i.e., tissue that is taken from a patient's own body) or an allograft (i.e., tissue that is taken from a cadaver) for ACL reconstruction. The SeriACL device is made of silk yarns, knit and processed with SeriCoat™ surface treatment which makes it easier to wet the material. The SeriACL device is designed to be a temporary support structure to replace the torn ACL and to stabilize the knee joint following surgical repair. It is designed to use the body's own healing process to regenerate the patient's own new ligament tissue. As the new tissue grows and the support structure is needed less over time, the SeriACL device is bioresorbed (i.e., broken down) by the patient's body. The SeriACL device is designed to be installed with standard surgical techniques for ACL repair.
