The BEAR Implant is the first medical technology to demonstrate, with Level 1 clinical evidence, that it enables the body to heal its own torn ACL. Unlike reconstruction, which is the current standard of care, the BEAR Implant does not require a second surgical wound site to remove a healthy tendon from another part of the leg or the use of a donor tendon. The BEAR Implant acts as a bridge between the two ends of the torn ACL. The surgeon injects a small amount of the patient’s own blood into the implant and inserts it between the torn ends of the ACL in a minimally invasive procedure. The combination of the BEAR Implant and the patient’s blood enables the body to heal the torn ends of the ACL back together while maintaining the ACL’s original attachments to the femur and tibia. The BEAR Implant is resorbed by the body as the ACL heals. The BEAR Implant was granted De Novo Approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in December 2020. It is indicated for skeletally mature patients at least 14 years of age with a complete rupture of the ACL, as confirmed by MRI. Patients must have an ACL stump attached to the tibia to facilitate the restoration. Visit miachortho.com for complete product information, including Instructions for Use.

All rights reserved. ML-1130 Dr. Shawn Anthony: BEAR ACL repair is an innovative technique. We're able to use a collagen implant to allow the body to heal the two torn ends of the ACL back together itself. And this is truly revolutionary in how we treat ACL injuries. As in the past, we've always had to remove the good ACL, native ACL torn tissue and reconstruct it with a artificial ACL ligament. Now we're able to aid the body in its own healing response with the use of the BEAR Implant. And the BEAR Implant is inserted between the two torn ends of the ACL. We use the patient's blood to hydrate, to saturate that implant, and then over the course of eight weeks it dissolves away and allows the normal ACL to heal back together. This has been shown in clinical trials to have excellent results that are comparable or even better than the existing ACL reconstruction techniques and patients have excellent clinical outcomes and excellent return to sports with the BEAR ACL surgery.
