Inclusion criteria were English\u2010language clinical studies involving arthroscopically assisted medial MAT that reported the surgical technique and the presence of graft extrusion or functional outcomes after surgery. Studies in which outcomes for medial MAT could not be separated from lateral MAT were excluded. Surgical technique, allograft\u2010related characteristics, and clinical outcomes were extracted.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Twenty\u2010four studies with 328 medial MAT were included, 58.3% studies qualified as level 4 of evidence, 29.2% as level 3, and 12.5% as level 2. Allograft fixation techniques were bone plug (235\/328 [71.6%]), bone bridge\/trough (55\/328 [16.8%]), and soft\u2010tissue suture fixation only (38\/328 [11.6%]). Relative percentage of extrusion after surgery ranged from 24.8% to 53.7%. Major extrusion (&gt;3 mm) ranged from zero to 78%. Overall, functional scores improved after medial MAT. None of surgical techniques were associated with poor functional outcomes or extruded meniscus; however, nonanatomical placement of the anterior and posterior horns appeared to increase meniscus extrusion.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Medial MAT provides favorable outcomes, with acceptable rates of complication and failure regardless of surgical technique. Although allograft extrusion appears equivalent for both bone plug and soft\u2010tissue fixation techniques, positioning allograft horns at the native meniscal footprint may be critical for preventing extrusion. However, the heterogeneity and low level of evidence of the studies included in this review prevent decisive conclusions regarding optimal MAT fixation techniques, clinical significance of allograft extrusion, or comparative clinical outcomes after medial MAT.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Level of Evidence<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Level IV \u2010 systematic review of Level II to IV studies.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1016\/j.arthro.2022.11.033","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,12,8]],"date-time":"2022-12-08T02:31:08Z","timestamp":1670466668000},"page":"802-811","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1016\/elsevier_cm_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":37,"title":["Systematic Review of Clinical Results After Medial Meniscus Allograft Transplantation Reveals Improved Patient Reported Outcomes at Greater Than 5 Years Follow\u2010Up"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"39","author":[{"given":"Chilan Bou Ghosson","family":"Leite","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopedic Surgery Center for Cartilage Repair and Sports Medicine Brigham and Women's Hospital Harvard Medical School Boston Massachusetts"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Gergo","family":"Merkely","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopedic Surgery Center for Cartilage Repair and Sports Medicine Brigham and Women's Hospital Harvard Medical School Boston Massachusetts"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Molly","family":"Zgoda","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopedic Surgery Center for Cartilage Repair and Sports Medicine Brigham and Women's Hospital Harvard Medical School Boston Massachusetts"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Evan M.","family":"Farina","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopedic Surgery Center for Cartilage Repair and Sports Medicine Brigham and Women's Hospital Harvard Medical School Boston Massachusetts"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Simon","family":"G\u00f6rtz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopedic Surgery Center for Cartilage Repair and Sports Medicine Brigham and Women's Hospital Harvard Medical School Boston Massachusetts"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jennifer","family":"Howard","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Rehabilitation Sciences Beaver College of Health Sciences Appalachian State University Boone North Carolina U.S.A."}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Christian","family":"Lattermann","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopedic Surgery Center for Cartilage Repair and Sports Medicine Brigham and Women's Hospital Harvard Medical School Boston Massachusetts"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,12,7]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_3_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0039-1695043"},{"key":"e_1_2_3_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/0363546513509057"},{"key":"e_1_2_3_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/0363546514536021"},{"key":"e_1_2_3_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.arthro.2020.07.025"},{"key":"e_1_2_3_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.arthro.2011.02.013"},{"key":"e_1_2_3_7_2","volume-title":"Medial bone bridge meniscal transplantation.
