I'm getting ACL reconstruction surgery soon and my surgeon mentioned options like biodegradable or titanium screws but I'm not sure which to pick. What are the key differences between them in terms of healing and long-term effects? With newer surgical tech available, which type tends to have better outcomes these days? How do doctors usually decide which screw is right for a particular patient?
In ACL reconstruction, both biodegradable and titanium screws offer different advantages and disadvantages. Biodegradable screws, made of materials like PLLA (poly-l-lactic acid), are absorbed by the body over time, eliminating the need for removal. Titanium screws, on the other hand, are permanent implants. Research suggests that both types of screws can lead to similar functional outcomes, though some studies suggest potential benefits of biodegradable screws in certain aspects, like MRI compatibility
