The purpose of this review was to comprehensively examine anterior cruciate ligament allograft studies published in the last decade to evaluate the extent to which tissue source, tissue processing techniques, and donor age are reported.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>Methods: The authors reviewed 202 articles published from 1999 through November 2009, of which 68 retrospective, prospective, biomechanical, and histology studies evaluating 4689 allografts were included.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>Results: The majority of studies do not accurately report key elements of graft history including tissue bank, processing or sterilization technique, or donor age. Underreporting was particularly prominent in clinical studies as compared with basic science studies. Limited reporting of allograft processing, allograft source, and donor age raises serious questions regarding the generalizability of published studies of allograft tissue for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>Conclusion\/Clinical Relevance: Orthopaedic surgeons who use allograft tissue must understand the tissue treatments being used (ie, preservation methods, chemical and sterilization processes) to best inform their patients regarding the risks, benefits, and long-term outcomes when such tissues are used. A complete understanding of the implanted tissue, as well as surgeon and recipient demographics, is necessary to ensure appropriate and predictable long-term outcomes.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/0363546510382222","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2010,11,9]],"date-time":"2010-11-09T23:10:12Z","timestamp":1289344212000},"page":"649-655","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":21,"title":["Anterior Cruciate Ligament Allograft Surgery"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"39","author":[{"given":"Robby S.","family":"Sikka","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, University of Minnesota Medical School, Minneapolis, Minnesota"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Steven J.","family":"Narvy","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Keck School of Medicine, University of Southern California, Los Angeles, California"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"suffix":"Jr","given":"C.
