Lateral femoral tunnel preparation and graft fixation for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction-A discussion.

This article provides a discussion and commentary around the recent advances in arthroscopic anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR), with a focus on the aspects of lateral femoral tunnel preparation and graft fixation techniques. The paper explores and comments on a recently published review by Dai , titled "Research progress on preparation of lateral femoral tunnel and graft fixation in ACLR", while providing insight into its relevance within the field of ACLR, and recommendations for future research.

Tibial Spine Avulsion Fractures in Paediatric Patients: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Surgical Management.

Background: Tibial spine avulsion fractures (TSAFs) account for approximately 14% of anterior cruciate ligament injuries. This study aims to systematically review the current evidence for the operative management of paediatric TSAFs.

Methods: A search was carried out across four databases: MEDLINE, Embase, Scopus, and Google Scholar.
