Arthroscopic lateral meniscus root repair with soft suture anchor technique.

ABSTRACT: Meniscus root tear leads to circumferential hoop tension loss and increases femorotibial contact force, which causes irreversible cartilage degeneration. Biomechanical studies have shown that meniscus root repair provides better femorotibial contact force than meniscectomy. Many techniques for meniscus root repair have been published in recent years. The soft suture anchor is widely used in the glenoid labral repair. It is a small low-profile soft anchor. This article presents a new and simple technique of lateral meniscus root repair using the small soft anchor, which results in an anatomic and more vertical anchor position. It avoids instrument-related complications, such as cartilage delamination, material reaction, metal retention, and hard suture anchor pullout.

Arthroscopic Medial Meniscus Root Repair With Soft Suture Anchor Without Posterior Portal Technique.

Project description:Medial meniscal root injury is known to cause an increase in tibiofemoral contact pressure and results in early osteoarthritis. There have been many reports on meniscal root repairing techniques, which can be categorized into 2 groups. One is transosseous suture, and the other is anchor suture repair. Both techniques show improvement in not only clinical performance, but also radiographic finding. However, the meniscal root repair procedure must be performed by experienced physicians. Most techniques require a posteromedial portal, which takes time and may even complicate the procedure. The technique proposed in this study provides a simple procedure in which no posteromedial portal is required and a soft anchor suture, a commonly used suture in glenolabral repair, is used. The use of this suture, instead of the conventional anchor suture, is believed to lessen possible injury to the cartilage and results in easier revision surgery.

Posterior Lateral Meniscus Root Reattachment With Suture Anchors: An Arthroscopic Technique.

Project description:The posterior lateral meniscus root (PLMR) provides the circumferential tension required to stabilize the lateral meniscus. Thus, preservation of the PLMR is important to prevent an increase in tibiofemoral contact pressure, which could result in osteoarthritis. We describe an all-arthroscopic approach to the fixation of PLMR using suture anchors through associated posterolateral arthroscopic portals that result in a more favorable inclination of the anchors. Initially, the anatomical insertion site of the root on the tibial plateau is debrided, 1 to 2 anchors are placed through the posterolateral portals into the root's footprint area, and the meniscus is finally sutured from the posterolateral portals. Compression of the meniscus is achieved with bone contact. This technique achieves lateral meniscus root fixation, reducing the risk of subluxation of the meniscus and subsequent osteoarthritis.

Lateral Meniscus Repair Using Posterolateral Portal: Suture Hook Technique.

Project description:Lateral meniscus lesions result in loss of meniscus hoop stresses and can lead to lateral compartment overload and early degenerative changes. Arthroscopic suture repair provides good long-term results. However, posterior vertical tears in the peripheral area of the meniscus can be technically challenging to resolve. This Technical Note describes the suture hook technique using an accessory posterolateral portal. We believe it is a safe, effective method for repairing full vertical tears of the lateral meniscus.

Arthroscopic suture anchor tenodesis: loop-suture technique.

Project description:With advancements in arthroscopic surgery, arthroscopic biceps tenodesis with suture anchor recently has been reported to be a reasonable option for the treatment of biceps pathologies, especially for those that are symptomatic or accompanied by a rotator cuff tear. We introduce our technique of arthroscopic biceps tenodesis with suture anchor that we call the loop-suture technique, which is constructed with 1 loop strand and another sutured strand. This technique can help to improve biceps grip and simultaneously minimize longitudinal splitting of the tendon. In addition, it is relatively simple and can be performed with the use of conventional devices and arthroscopic portals used for rotator cuff repair, without the formation of additional portals or a separate incision for the tenodesis.

Arthroscopic Repair for Parrot Beak Tear of Lateral Meniscus with Reduction Suture and Inside-Out Technique.

Project description:Parrot beak tear is a white-white meniscal injury that often occurs in isolated injuries. Partial meniscectomy for parrot beak tears is often recommended, owing to the avascular zone; however, partial meniscectomy, especially with the lateral meniscus, has a high failure rate for return to sports, leading to residual meniscus extrusion and lateral compartment osteoarthritis. Thus, we have developed a repair technique to preserve the parrot beak tear of the avascular zone. This is a modification of the inside-out repair with additional reduction sutures. We recommend this procedure as a technique for repairing avascular parrot beak tears of the lateral meniscus.

Arthroscopic Transtibial Pull-Out Repair of Medial Meniscus Posterior Root Tear With a Whip Running Suture Technique.

Project description:Medial meniscus posterior root tear is a disruptive injury causing significant sequelae. Several techniques to repair and maintain the native function of the medial meniscus have been introduced, but limitations have been reported in terms of their results. In this current note, the authors introduce the arthroscopic transtibial pull-out repair with whip running suture technique, which may not only avoid the potential risk of meniscus cut-through by the suture material but also optimize the reduction of the extruded meniscus. By suturing the posteromedial capsule and peripheral meniscus, more medialization force can be directly applied to the extruded part of the meniscus, and normal hoop tension can be restored.

Knotless Suture Anchor Repair of Anterolateral Meniscus Root After Iatrogenic Injury.

Project description:In recent years there has been increased attention on preserving the menisci because they perform vital roles in maintaining knee joint homeostasis. The anterolateral (AL) meniscal root is particularly vulnerable during anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. When the AL root is iatrogenically injured, it is imperative that it is repaired in a timely fashion to prevent early-onset osteoarthritis. In this article we outline our knotless suture anchor repair for AL root tears.

Arthroscopic Repair of Type II SLAP Tears Using Suture Anchor Technique.

Project description:Arthroscopic SLAP tear repair has become an increasingly used treatment for patients presenting with symptomatic SLAP tears after failed nonoperative management. Debridement, SLAP repair, and open or arthroscopic biceps tenodesis or tenotomy have been used for the treatment of SLAP tears. Various techniques for repair have been described, and furthermore, there is a high incidence of concomitant pathology of the shoulder. Repair remains an excellent option in isolated SLAP tears amenable to repair, with excellent outcomes in well-indicated patients. We present a method for repairing a SLAP tear using standard suture anchor fixation, anterior and posterior portals, and an accessory portal of Wilmington. Adequate labral repair can be achieved with this technique in patients with no concomitant biceps pathology. This report highlights this technique for SLAP repair in patients with isolated symptomatic SLAP tears that have failed conservative management.

Technique for Transtibial Knotless Repair of Lateral Meniscus Root Avulsion.

Project description:Tear of the meniscal root results in loss of circumferential hoop tension in the meniscus and increased tibiofemoral contact pressure, leading to cartilage wear. Repair of the meniscal root can restore function of the meniscus. Many techniques for root repair have recently been described. We present a technique for root repair using a transtibial socket and knotless suture technique that can be performed through standard arthroscopy portals.

All-Inside Arthroscopic Meniscal Stacked Suture Repair for Hypermobile Lateral Meniscus With FASTFIX 360.

Project description:Even though inside-out repair of meniscal tears is still the gold standard, the need for a posterior incision is a certain disadvantage of this approach. However, all-inside arthroscopic meniscal stacked suture repair can be performed for hypermobile lateral meniscus using all-inside devices and slotted canula. This technique is able not only to reduce surgical invasion but also preserve meniscal mobility, since sutures are placed on the peripheral area of the lateral meniscus. To successfully use the devices required for this procedure, surgeons must understand proper insertion techniques. The purpose of this Technical Note is to demonstrate this technique using FASTFIX 360.
