Arthroscopic Meniscal Root Repair Using a Ceterix NovoStitch Suture Passer.

ABSTRACT: Meniscal root injuries can compromise knee function and lead to early degenerative changes if not appropriately treated. Numerous techniques have been described; however, the technical difficulties in performing these repairs are well known. Furthermore, the relative strengths of various repair techniques have been examined. This article describes a single-working portal meniscal root repair technique using a double-locking loop suture configuration with a novel suture-passing device that offers a strong, reproducible repair construct.

All-inside suture meniscal repair using suture passer.

Project description:In recent years, to save the meniscus and prevent the progression of knee osteoarthritis, the indications for meniscus repair have been expanding instead of partial menisectomy. Accordingly, various repair techniques for meniscus tears have been developed. The conventional inside-out and outside-in meniscus repair techniques and all-inside repair technique with an implant/anchor can be classified as trans-capsular (TC) repair from the perspective of suture with penetrating capsule. Recently, new suture passers for all-inside meniscus repair have been developed. To distinguish from conventional all-inside repair with implant/anchors, all-inside repair with only suture using these suture passers was described as all-inside suture (AIS) repair. This AIS repair could achieve meniscus-to-meniscus suture across the tear without interposition of soft tissues including the capsule between suture and meniscus, leading direct gap closing of torn edges. In this respect, AIS repair is considered to be "anatomical meniscus repair". Actually, some reports showed biomechanical and clinical advantages of AIS repair. However, there is still limited evidence in clinical practice. Moreover, there are some disadvantages for AIS repair. Not only further studies but also development of new devices and surgical techniques for AIS should be required. This review describes the current status of AIS repair for each type of tear.

Posterior Meniscal Root Repair Using a Meniscal Suture Device.

Project description:A greater understanding of the deleterious consequences that a meniscal root tear brings to the knee joint and how its surgical repair can be advantageous over the previously used treatment strategies brings the need for the development of surgical techniques that make the procedure less complex and more reproducible. When meniscal root rupture occurs, a mechanical overload occurs in the affected compartment similar to a total meniscectomy. Several authors have concluded that meniscal root reinsertion significantly improves postoperative outcomes and patient satisfaction, regardless of age or laterality of the meniscal injury. The Meniscus 4 A-II device (Rio de Janeiro, Brazil) allows stitching at the root of the medial and lateral menisci. In this article, we describe the surgical repair technique for posterior-medial and -lateral meniscal root tears using this meniscal suture device. This technique is fast and effective.

An Arthroscopic-Assisted Radial Meniscal Tear Repair Using Reinforced Suture Tape Rebars and Suture Tapes.

Project description:A radial tear of the meniscus can lead to significant loss of meniscus function, resulting in deleterious cartilage changes. Repair of radial meniscus tears has several challenges, including suture pull-out, which can reduce healing success. We present an arthroscopic repair technique in a complete radial lateral meniscus tear using vertical reinforced bars (rebar) of suture tapes to reduce suture pull-out and approximate the radial tear.

Transosseous Medial Meniscal Root Repair Using a Modified Mason-Allen Suture Configuration.

Project description:Medial meniscal tears are among the most common injuries to the knee joint. Loss of the meniscus has been linked to increased contact pressures on the adjacent articular cartilage and progression of degenerative changes in the knee. A subset of tears known as "root tears" involves the insertion of the posterior horn of the meniscus to the bone. Arthroscopic partial meniscectomy for root tears led to undesirable outcomes, which prompted surgeons to explore restorative procedures. Multiple repair techniques have been presented with an emphasis placed on initial secure fixation and stimulation of potential healing. We present an arthroscopic-assisted technique for medial meniscal root repair with these goals in mind.

Arthroscopic Medial Meniscus Posterior Root Repair with Centralization Using Knotless Suture Anchors.

Project description:Medial meniscus posterior root tears can lead to rapid progression of knee arthritis because of loss of the stress distribution function of the meniscus. Medial meniscus root repair can restore stress distribution and improve clinical outcome. In cases of medial meniscus root tears with meniscal extrusion, centralization may help reduce extrusion and protect the root repair. Presented here is a technique for transtibial medial meniscus root repair with centralization using knotless suture anchors, building on previously developed techniques.

Arthroscopic Suprapectoral Biceps Tenodesis: The "Double Secure Loop Technique" Using an All-Suture Anchor and an Arthroscopic Suture Passer.

Project description:Although the long head of the biceps tendon is known to resist superior movement of the humeral head in the shoulder joint and assist flexion and supination of the elbow joint, its exact function remains unclear. Moreover, the ideal treatment of lesions of the long head of the biceps tendon such as tendinitis, subluxation, dislocation, and partial or complete rupture remains controversial. Various tenodesis methods have been introduced by many authors. This technique-based article aims to discuss tenodesis as an option for biceps tendon fixation.

Arthroscopic lateral meniscus root repair with soft suture anchor technique.

Project description: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.

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.

Arthroscopic Subscapularis Repair Using 18-Gauge Spinal Needle as a Suture Passer to Eliminate Iatrogenic Tendon Damage from Modern Suturing Devices.

Project description:Suture passing devices are frequently used for subscapularis tendon repair. However, some of these devices can further damage the tendon by creating a larger tear. Use of an 18-gauge spinal needle as a suture passer helps eliminate damage to the tendon. By using its smaller diameter, the needle prevents tendon cut-through and enhances the precision of the repair.
