Modified Pull-out Suture in Posterior Root Tear of the Medial Meniscus: Using a Posteromedial Portal
In cases with root tear of the medial meniscus posterior horn, the meniscus usually can be repaired by a pull out suture technique. However, there is difficulty in manipulating a suture hook via the anteromedial portal and looking through the arthroscopic camera via anterolateral portal in the narrow medial joint space at the same time. This article describes a modified simple pull out suture t...
متن کاملSecond-Look Arthroscopic Assessment and Clinical Results of Modified Pull-Out Suture for Posterior Root Tear of the Medial Meniscus
PURPOSE To identify the structural integrity of the healing site after arthroscopic repair of a posterior root tear of the medial meniscus by second-look arthroscopy and to determine the clinical relevance of the findings. MATERIALS AND METHODS From January 2005 to December 2010, 20 consecutive patients underwent arthroscopic modified pull-out suture repair for a posterior root tear of the me...
متن کاملMedial Meniscus Posterior Root Tear: A Comprehensive Review
Damage to the medial meniscus root, for example by a complete radial tear, destroys the ability of the knee to withstand hoop strain, resulting in contact pressure increases and kinematic alterations. For these reasons, several techniques have been developed to repair the medial meniscus posterior root tear (MMPRT), many of which have shown complete healing of the repaired MMPRT. However, effor...
متن کاملLoop-Post Construct, A Novel Technique for Medial Meniscus Root Repair
Surgical reattachment of medial meniscus posterior root tear (MMPRT) with transtibial sutures can delay the presenceof medial knee joint compartment osteoarthritis. Most suture configurations are placed five mm away from the tornmargin in the meniscal substance which is already degenerated and may decrease the pull out strengths of repairconstruct. The number of meniscus penet...
متن کاملBiomechanical consequences of a tear of the posterior root of the medial meniscus. Surgical technique.
BACKGROUND Tears of the posterior root of the medial meniscus are becoming increasingly recognized. They can cause rapidly progressive arthritis, yet their biomechanical effects are not understood. The goal of this study was to determine the effects of posterior root tears of the medial meniscus and their repairs on tibiofemoral joint contact pressure and kinematics. METHODS Nine fresh-frozen...
