Abstract: This study was to analyse the application of electrospinning (EP) nanofibres in the rehabilitation of fracture of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL). The patients in groups A, B, and C were treated with exercise rehabilitation, ozone therapy combined with rehabilitation exercises, and EP nanofibre stents for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. It was found that the water contact angle of the dissolved and blended nanofibres decreased as the specific gravity (SG) of PCL increased; and the elongation rate and mechanical properties of nanofibre materials increased as the tensile strength increased. The scores of ligament injury for patients in the control group (78.66 ± 6.24) and the experimental group (89.65 ± 5.89) were much higher than those in the blank group (62.1 ± 6.02), showing statistical differences (P < 0.05). It showed that the nanofibre stent was successfully prepared, which had good mechanical properties and hydrophilicity.
