The purpose of this study was to evaluate the existing literature from 2005 to 2016 reporting on the efficacy of surgical management of patients with femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) secondary to slipped capital femoral epiphysis (SCFE). The electronic databases MEDLINE, EMBASE, and PubMed were searched and screened in duplicate. Data such as patient demographics, surgical technique, surgical outcomes and complications were retrieved from eligible studies.Objectives
Methods
Our aim was to perform a meta-analysis of the outcomes of revision
anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction, comparing the use
of different types of graft. A search was performed of Medline and Pubmed using the terms
“Anterior Cruciate Ligament” and “ACL” combined with “revision”,
“re-operation” and “failure”. Only studies that reported the outcome
at a minimum follow-up of two years were included. Two authors reviewed
the papers, and outcomes were subdivided into autograft and allograft. Autograft
was subdivided into hamstring (HS) and bone-patellar tendon-bone
(BPTB). Subjective and objective outcome measures were analysed
and odds ratios with confidence intervals were calculated.Aims
