Management of a Traumatic Multiligament Knee Injury With Coinciding Patellar Tendon Rupture: A Case Report.
Article in Case reports in orthopedics, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Although ligamentous injuries to the knee are a common occurrence, concomitant rupture of the patellar tendon (PT) is a rare finding. We present the case of a 28-year-old male who sustained a multiligamentous injury of the knee, which involved the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), posterior cruciate ligament (PCL), and medial collateral ligament (MCL) along with a rupture of the PT secondary to a dirt bike accident. We also review the current treatment guidelines for multiligamentous knee injuries based on the available literature. This unique presentation was treated surgically using a two-staged approach: an initial acute repair of the PT and MCL, followed by an arthroscopic reconstruction of the ACL and PCL using allograft tissues. This approach, combined with an aggressive rehabilitation program, can lead to a satisfactory clinical outcome for a multiligamentous knee injury in combination with a rupture of the PT.
