Medial Meniscus Posterior Root Tear Repair Using a 2-Simple-Suture Pullout Technique

May 24, 2017407 views

Medial meniscus posterior root tear (MMPRT) is a disruption that occurs within 1 cm of the meniscus posterior horn attachment to the tibial plateau, a condition that simulates total meniscectomy due to loss of meniscal biomechanical function..The current technical note describes a reproducible pullout technique using a 2-simple-suture configuration to repair MMPRT. The cornerstones of this technique are the direction, the size of the tibial tunnel, and the simplicity of the suture configuration, which collectively allow enough meniscal tissue to be pulled within the tunnel under good tension.......
