Arthroscopic Meniscus Repair: Clinical and Isokinetic Results
The importance of the menisci for transmitting workloads in the knee joint to protect the articular cartilage is widely acknowledged. Therefore various techniques have been introduced to repair the damaged meniscus.We performed an arthroscopic meniscus repair with a modified outside-in technique on 29 patients (average 25 years) between 2/91 and 10/94. The average time between trauma and operat...
متن کاملA simplified arthroscopic outside-in meniscus repair technique.
A simple and reproducible technique for meniscus tear repair is described. The technique requires the use of a 16-gauge intravenous catheter, a suture hook, and a knot pusher. The catheter is used for perforation of the meniscus and the tear site in two adjacent locations, then the two free suture ends are retrieved and passed along a small arthroscopic cannula placed at the ipsilateral joint s...
متن کاملArthroscopic Direct Repair for a Complete Radial Tear of the Posterior Root of the Medial Meniscus
We report here on a new arthroscopic direct repair technique for a radial tear of the posterior root of the medial meniscus (PRMM) using a posterior trans-septal portal. Radial tears of the PRMM are commonly observed in the elderly population of Korea and Japan, and the life style of these people requires squatting and kneeling down in daily life. A radial tear of the PRMM results in the loss o...
متن کاملAugmentation of the Pullout Repair of a Medial Meniscus Posterior Root Tear by Arthroscopic Centralization
The meniscus roots are critical for meniscus function in preserving correct knee kinematics and avoiding meniscus extrusion and, consequently, in the progression of osteoarthritis. Several techniques exist for medial meniscus posterior root tear repair; however, current surgical techniques have been proved to fail to reduce meniscus extrusion, which has been shown to be associated with developm...
متن کاملArthroscopic repair of complete tear of rotator cuff
Abstract Background: Rotator cuff tear is one of the most common causes of shoulder complaints in the elderly. Based on the severity and patient's condition, a variety of methods applies to manage the tear and surgery is an important method, which could be done by open or arthroscopic technique. The current study aimed to investigate and report short-term results of arthroscopic repair of...
