Abstract

Background

Tibial tubercle osteotomy (TTO) is a procedure that can be used as an alternative to total knee arthroplasty (TKA) or to address patellar instability in patients experiencing dislocation events. The purpose of this paper is to systematically evaluate the most cited articles pertaining to TTO through bibliometric analysis.

Methods

A search using the Web of Science database with keywords pertaining to TTO was conducted in April 2024. Articles with the most citations that met all inclusion criteria were analyzed to determine information such as level of evidence (LoE), article topic, journal of publication, year published, country of origin, and institution of origin.

Results

The average number of citations was 79 (range of 42–334). The decade with the most publications was from 2010 to 2019 (n = 26; 52%). Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research was the journal with the largest number of published articles (n = 9, 18%). The United States (US) (n = 25; 50%) and France (n = 4; 8%) were the two countries with the most publications. Mayo Clinic (n = 3, 6 %), Ohio State University (n = 3, 6%), and Rush University (n = 3, 6%) were the institutions contributing the most articles. The LoE most reported was level 4 (n = 22; 44%). Topics were primarily related to clinical outcomes (n = 38; 76%).

Conclusion

This analysis revealed that most articles were related to clinical outcomes and have been published since 2000. By analyzing the characteristics of the most cited articles, an understanding of current research and identification of areas for further exploration can be determined for TTO.

Study Design

胫骨结节截骨术（TTO）：有影响力的文献综述

背景胫骨结节截骨术（TTO）是一种可用于替代全膝关节置换术（TKA）或解决脱位患者髌骨不稳的手术。本文旨在通过文献计量学分析系统地评估与TTO相关的被引用次数最多的文章。方法在2024年4月使用Web of Science数据库以与TTO相关的关键词进行搜索。对符合所有纳入标准的被引次数最多的文章进行了分析，以确定证据等级（LoE）、文章主题、发表期刊、发表年份、原籍国和原籍机构等信息。结果平均被引次数为 79 次（范围为 42-334 次）。发表论文最多的十年是 2010 年至 2019 年（n = 26；52%）。临床骨科及相关研究》是发表文章数量最多的期刊（n = 9，18%）。美国（n = 25；50%）和法国（n = 4；8%）是发表文章最多的两个国家。梅奥诊所（n = 3，6%）、俄亥俄州立大学（n = 3，6%）和拉什大学（n = 3，6%）是发表文章最多的机构。报告最多的 LoE 为 4 级（n = 22；44%）。结论这项分析显示，大多数文章与临床结果有关，并且是自 2000 年以来发表的。通过分析被引用次数最多的文章的特点，可以了解目前的研究情况，并确定需要进一步探索的 TTO 领域。
