Long-term Results of Bone-Patellar Tendon-Bone Versus Hamstring Tendon Autograft for Primary Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction: A Meta-analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials
BTB and HT autografts for primary ACLR demonstrate similar outcomes and rates of OA progression at long-term follow-ups. Knees undergoing ACLR have a greater risk of OA progression compared with healthy contralateral knees.
