“…[6,12,13]. Artificial ACL grafts in biomaterials can be produced in tube form using natural or synthetic-based raw materials such as Col, Si, Ni, PE, PP, PA, PET, UHMWPE, PPD-T, PAA, PAc, PVDF, PTFE, PVA, PCL, PGA, PLA, PLLA, PLCL, PLGA, PMHB, PTFE, C and SS by using braiding, weaving, and knitting production methods, which are various textile production methods [5,6,11,12,[14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26]. Production parameters of textile-based production methods used in biomaterial production are such as yarn types, yarn counts, filament numbers, inter-fibre friction forces, and biological, chemical, and mechanical properties of yarns, their construction and density values are important production parameters and are extremely effective on the bio-mechanical performance values of biomaterials.…”

In the current study, an investigation of basic dimensional properties and biomechanical performance of artificial ACL grafts produced by the 3-D braiding method was carried out. Artificial ACL grafts were produced using the 3-D braiding process. All 3-D braiding grafts were produced using various technical yarns for raw and bio-finishing grafts. Ethylene oxide (EtO) sterilization was applied to all grafts. The effects of yarn types, yarn counts, and 3-D braiding constructions on EtO sterilized raw and bio-finished artificial ACL grafts were examined. In conclusion; the tensile strength and thickness values of all 3-D braiding structured ACL grafts were suitable for artificial ligament grafts. Additionally, its grammage values were extremely light. The yarn type, yarn count, and 3-D braiding construction were the most effective process parameters on thickness, grammage, and tensile strength values. They can be improved by using x2-layered 3-D braiding structures, thicker yarn counts, and more than 1 core yarn in similar studies to be conducted in the future.

Tendon and ligament injuries caused by trauma and degenerative diseases are frequent and affect diverse groups of the population. Such injuries reduce musculoskeletal performance, limit joint mobility, and lower people's comfort. Currently, various treatment strategies and surgical procedures are used to heal, repair, and restore the native tissue function. However, these strategies are inadequate and, in some cases, fail to re‐establish the lost functionality. Tissue engineering and regenerative medicine approaches aim to overcome these disadvantages by stimulating the regeneration and formation of neotissues. Design and fabrication of artificial scaffolds with tailored mechanical properties are crucial for restoring the mechanical function of tendons. In this review, the tendon and ligament structure, their physiology, and performance are presented. On the other hand, the requirements are focused for the development of an effective reconstruction device. The most common fiber‐based scaffolding systems are also described for tendon and ligament tissue regeneration like strand fibers, woven, knitted, braided, and braid‐twisted fibrous structures, as well as electrospun and wet‐spun constructs, discussing critically the advantages and limitations of their utilization. Finally, the potential of multilayered systems as the most effective candidates for tendon and ligaments tissue engineering is pointed out.
