Loop-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...

Posterior root avulsions of the medial and lateral menisci result in decreased areas of tibiofemoral contact and increased tibiofemoral contact pressures. These avulsions may lead to the development of osteoarthritis. Therefore, two surgical techniques, the transtibial pullout repairand thesutureanchor repair, have recentlybeendeveloped to restore the native structure and function of the menisc...
متن کاملAltered tibiofemoral contact mechanics due to lateral meniscus posterior horn root avulsions and radial tears can be restored with in situ pull-out suture repairs.
BACKGROUND An avulsion of the posterior root attachment of the lateral meniscus or a radial tear close to the root attachment can lead to degenerative knee arthritis. Although the biomechanical effects of comparable injuries involving the medial meniscus have been studied, we are aware of no such study involving the lateral meniscus. We hypothesized that in situ pull-out suture repair of latera...
متن کاملBiomechanical Consequences of a Complete Radial Tear Adjacent to the Medial Meniscus Posterior Root Attachment Site
BACKGROUND Complete radial tears near the medial meniscus posterior root attachment site disrupt the circumferential integrity of the meniscus (similar to a posterior root avulsion). These tears can compromise the circumferential integrity, and they have been reported in biomechanical studies to be comparable with the meniscectomized state. PURPOSE To quantify the tibiofemoral contact pressur...
متن کاملArthroscopic Medial Meniscus Posterior Root Reconstruction Using Auto-Gracilis Tendon
There have been several techniques to repair the medial meniscus posterior root tears (MMPRTs) with the goal of restoring the anatomic and firm fixation of the meniscal root to bone. Many anatomic studies about the menisci also have been developed, so a better understanding of the anatomy could help surgeons perform correct fixation of the MMPRTs. The meniscal roots have ligament-like structure...
