Most cited publications in arthroscopy

Abstract

Arthroscopy is a rapidly expanding and sub-specializing field of orthopedic surgery. We set out to list the most cited papers in the field of arthroscopy to get an insight of how influential and to what disciplines these papers belong to. We have listed most cited papers from Scopus in different categories which included individual joint related arthroscopy, for each decade and based on the type of study from the titles of citations. This report will help the novice arthroscopic surgeon to gain an insight into the fields and types of research that are happening and guide to explore the literature on this subject. We discussed the advantages and limitations of such a search and listing.
