“…There are many studies in the current literature on whether social media is informative and useful in the field of orthopaedics [3,[21][22][23]25]. Many orthopaedic surgeons and journals have at least one social media account, including Instagram, with shoulder and knee surgeons being the most active user groups [5,6,14,20,24,25]. Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries, one of the most trending topics in the field of orthopaedic sports surgery, are most commonly encountered between the ages of 18 and 30 years, and Instagram is mostly used by users in this age group [15].…”

PurposeSocial media has become the new information acquisition platform for all content producers. In the current literature, there are no studies examining the content quality and the strengths and weaknesses of videos on Instagram that explain anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries, which is the most discussed topic of sports surgery. The aim of this study was to evaluate the quality, strengths and weaknesses of information pertaining to ACL surgery that is disseminated on Instagram.MethodAn Instagram search was conducted from 30 May 2023 to 30 January 2024. The search encompassed six languages (English, Spanish, German, French, Italian and Turkish) and was performed by six different observers. The investigation focused on eight subheadings derived from current literature on the ACL. These subheadings were addressed in Instagram videos, covering ACL biology or biomechanics, injury mechanism, injury prevention, injury evaluation, surgical technique, injury or surgery complications, injury rehabilitation process and return to sport or work.ResultThe content was assessed of 127 videos from 127 Instagram accounts, spanning six different languages. Across the review of eight subheadings, the average number covered for the entire group was 3 (range, 0–8). Further analysis revealed that surgical technique was the most frequently mentioned subheading for the whole group (68.5%), followed by injury evaluation (54.3%). Prevention (10.2%) and complications (19.6%) were the least mentioned subheadings. The number of followers showed a correlation with video content quality.ConclusionAlthough the video quality scores were found to be moderate, the content often focused on surgery and evaluation subheadings. The prevalence of incomplete information underscores the importance of developing strategies to ensure more comprehensive and accurate dissemination of medical knowledge.Level of EvidenceLevel V.

“…Under his guidance, KSSTA has tremendously grown in both the quantity and quality of submissions and publications, solidifying its position among the top 10 journals in the field of orthopaedics and sports traumatology. Jon Karlsson has always embraced and introduced new ways of disseminating the voice of KSSTA in the scientific community [1,5,8,[12][13][14], alongside leading numerous educational initiatives aimed at teaching younger, less skilled researchers with the basic publishing skills set needed [2,4,6,7,[9][10][11]. In addition, he has built a fantastic team of editors and associate editors for whom he served as a role model.…”
