Abstract: Abstract: Repair of ligament and tendon injury is the highlight in clinical practice. Advancement in this field in recent years substantially attributes to the integration of biomedical engineering and clinical practice. In this lecture， the author introduced some focuses of ligament and tendon repair in biomedical engineering research at present， as well as some latest progress in bioengineering repair of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL)， which is of great clinical significance.
Key words: biomedical engineering; ligament and tendon injury; anterior cruciate ligament (ACL); tendinopathy
