Symptomatic tibial tunnel ganglion cyst presenting four years following an ACL hamstring autograft reconstruction: a case report of a rare complication of ACL surgery.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Objective: To highlight a case of an athlete with a symptomatic pretibial cyst 4-years post-ACL reconstruction surgery. Case presentation: A 23-year-old female soccer athlete presented with right-sided knee pain, locking and catching, and diminished sensation along the anteroinferior knee. She had a history of an ipsilateral ACL hamstring autograft four years prior. Physical evaluation revealed a visible and palpable swelling medial to the patellar tendon, limited and painful range, and hypoesthesia within the infrapatellar branch of the saphenous nerve. MRI revealed a tubular ganglion cyst along the anterior aspect of the tibial tunnel, medial to the patellar tendon, and anterior to the ACL graft. Summary: Post-surgical ganglion cyst formation in the reconstructed ACL is a rare complication that can present years following ACL surgery. This case aims to bring awareness to this condition as a potential long-term complication in the ACL-reconstructed athlete.
