Note. Mirzayan et al²¹ also reported percentages—the data for which were extrapolated given their patient population. NR = not reported; MCL = medial collateral ligament.

^aMirzayan et al²¹ reported percentages.

^bTwo patients from Yoon et al⁴¹ were excluded for being pediatric cases; 3 patients were excluded from Sollender et al³¹ as they were listed as “middle aged.”
