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

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Graft failure following anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) remains a significant challenge, driving discussion for optimal graft choice. Traditionally, hamstring tendon (HT) and bone‐patella tendon‐bone (BPTB) autografts have been favoured for ACLR. Recently, quadriceps tendon (QT) usage has increased.
