Orthopaedic surgeons are receptive to the findings of a meta-analysis reporting on the effectiveness of vancomycin graft presoaking in ACL reconstruction, which can thus have a substantial impact upon clinical care. Addressing concerns about vancomycin induced graft toxicity and comparing the pre-soaking effect to that of specific intravenous antibiotic regimens may further enhance the uptake of this practice.
