Improved clinical results and anatomic placement of tunnel in modified transtibial SB ACLR .
This study has been identified as potentially high impact.
OE's AI-driven High Impact metric estimates the influence a paper is likely to have by integrating signals from both the journal in which it is published and the scientific content of the article itself.
Developed using state-of-the-art natural language processing, the OE High Impact model more accurately predicts a study's future citation performance than journal impact factor alone.
This enables earlier recognition of clinically meaningful research and helps readers focus on articles most likely to shape future practice.
Modified transtibial versus anteromedial portal technique in anatomic single-bundle anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction: comparison of femoral tunnel position and clinical results
Am J Sports Med. 2014 Dec;42(12):2941-7.40 patients undergoing single-bundle anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction were randomized to be operated upon using the modified transtibial technique or the anteromedial portal technique. The purpose of this study was to understand if clinical outcomes and anatomic placement of the femoral tunnel were similar between the modified transtibial technique and anteromedial portal techniques. The results indicated that both groups displayed similar clinical outcomes and anatomic femoral tunnel placement following surgery. Moreover, the coronal obliquity and mean tunnel size was greater in patients who underwent modified transtibial single-bundle anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.
