Also known as: Bridge enhanced ACL restoration.

The Orthopedics, Sports Medicine and Spine Institute at Nicklaus Children’s now offers bridge enhanced ACL restoration (BEAR implant) for patients in need of ACL reconstruction surgery. This procedure, for those who qualify, involves the placement of an implant that enables the ACL to heal itself over time, rather than traditional surgery that involves replacing the ACL.
