Quadriceps, hamstring and patella tendon autografts for primary anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction demonstrate similar clinical outcomes, including graft failure, joint laxity and complications: A systematic review with meta‐analysis of randomised controlled trials

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
