The current meta-analysis suggests that both, increased medial and lateral tibial plateau slopes, are associated with increased susceptibility to ACL injury regardless of gender. In addition, this study indicates a stronger evidence for lateral tibial plateau slope to be associated with ACL injury compared with medial tibial plateau slope due to the larger increased angle value and on the basis of consistency among the included studies.
