Arthroscopic Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction in a 17-Year-Old Female Athlete with Multiple Hereditary Exostoses Using a Peroneus Longus Autograft: A Rare Case Report.
Article in Journal of orthopaedic case reports, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Introduction: Hereditary multiple exostoses, also known as multiple osteochondromas, is a rare genetic disorder marked by the formation of osteocartilaginous outgrowths predominantly near the metaphysis of long bones. The knee is a commonly affected joint. Surgical reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament in patients with Hereditary multiple exostoses presents unique challenges due to distorted bony anatomy, posing risks to graft harvesting, tunnel positioning, and fixation. Case Report: We present the case of a 17-year-old female football athlete with symptomatic Anterior cruciate ligament deficiency on a background of Hereditary multiple exostoses. Following persistent instability despite conservative management, she underwent arthroscopic Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction using a tripled peroneus longus tendon autograft. Special precautions were taken intraoperatively to navigate anatomical distortions and ensure precise tunnel placement while avoiding conflict with osteochondromas. Fixation was achieved using a femoral Endobutton and tibial 'T' button. Conclusion: Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction in patients with Hereditary multiple exostoses is feasible and can yield excellent functional outcomes when anatomical variations are meticulously accounted for in surgical planning. Peroneus longus graft is a viable option when conventional grafts are compromised or inaccessible due to exostoses.
