Overview

Systematic review evaluates remnant preservation versus standard techniques in ACL injury management, highlighting clinical outcomes.

Key Points

  • Postoperative Lysholm scores showed a significant improvement with remnant preservation in ACL reconstruction.
  • Statistical differences for side-to-side differences and proprioception recovery favored the remnant preservation method.
  • The study included a total of 10 randomized controlled trials published from January 2000 to November 2024.
  • Remnant preservation may not provide clinically meaningful benefits; optimal conditions are required for its application.
