To assess current basic science studies on anatomic ACL reconstruction and evaluate the reconstructive methods applied, focusing on their definitions and reporting standards.
Key Findings:
18 papers were selected for final inclusion in the systematic review, highlighting a gap in the definition of anatomic techniques.
Most excluded studies did not claim their reconstructive technique was anatomic, indicating a lack of clarity in the literature.
The average publication year of included studies was 2006, suggesting a need for updated research.
Interpretation:
The review highlights the insufficient reporting of surgical techniques in studies claiming to be anatomic, which limits the ability to extrapolate results to clinical settings and underscores the need for better definitions.
Limitations:
Only studies published in English were included, which may introduce language bias.
The analysis was not performed in a blinded fashion, potentially affecting objectivity.
Conclusion:
The systematic review underscores the need for clearer definitions and reporting standards for anatomic ACL reconstruction techniques to enhance clinical applicability.
