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.
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.
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%). 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%).
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.

胫骨结节截骨术（TTO）是一种可替代全膝关节置换术（TKA）或用于解决发生脱位事件患者髌骨不稳定问题的手术。本文旨在通过文献计量分析系统评价与TTO相关的被引用次数最多的文章。
2024年4月使用科学网数据库，以与TTO相关的关键词进行检索。对符合所有纳入标准且被引用次数最多的文章进行分析，以确定诸如证据水平（LoE）、文章主题、发表期刊、发表年份、原产国和原产机构等信息。
平均被引用次数为79次（范围为42 - 334次）。发表文章最多的十年是2010年至2019年（n = 26；52%）。《 》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%）是贡献文章最多的机构。报告最多的LoE为4级（n = 22；44%）。主题主要与临床结果相关（n = 38；76%）。
该分析表明，大多数文章与临床结果相关且自2000年以来发表。通过分析被引用次数最多的文章的特征，可以确定对TTO当前研究的理解以及进一步探索的领域。
横断面研究。
