Advantages and Disadvantages of Double-Bundle Repair of the Anterior Cruciate Ligament With Internal Brace Augmentation and a Knotless Suture Implant

Advantages	Disadvantages
Maintains the anatomical structure of the ACL and proprioceptive sensation	Possible stress shielding of repaired ACL
Enhances the mechanical properties of the repaired ACL and protects repaired ACL during the healing process	Potential for overconstraining the joint
Allows for accelerated rehabilitation	There is a certain degree of technical difficulty, and a certain learning curve is needed.
The bone mass and ACL stump are preserved, providing conditions for ACL reconstruction after failed ACL repair.	It is necessary to take enough ACL remnant to avoid failure.
