Posterior Horn of Medial Meniscal Peripheral Capsular Lesion: The Arthroscopic Repair Technique Working in the Posterior Compartment.

Project description:A posterior horn of medial meniscal peripheral capsular is usually associated with the anterior cruciate ligament injury. The conventional repair technique with the camera in the anterolateral portal cannot precisely restore the slope capsular synovium to the original attachment point. We present the arthroscopic technique for improving the accuracy and quality of the repair by working in the posterior compartment. When the posterolateral portal is used as the viewing portal, the accuracy of repair is improved because we can assess the full extent of the lesion and lift the sagging peripheral tissue to the more central part.

All-inside arthroscopic meniscal repair with meniscal cinch.

Project description:The number of commercially available all-arthroscopic meniscal repair devices has increased in recent years. Although inside-out vertical mattress sutures have been considered the gold standard in the past, recent biomechanical studies have shown that some all-arthroscopic repair devices provide comparable strength. To successfully use these devices, surgeons must understand proper insertion technique. The purpose of this article is to demonstrate this technique for the Meniscal Cinch (Arthrex, Naples, FL).

A Transosseous Bone Bridge Repair for Posterior Horn Meniscal Root Tears During Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction.

Project description:Meniscal root tears occur in isolation or concurrently with ligamentous knee injury and cause significantly altered knee mechanics with the loss of normal meniscus hoop stress. This loss of normal meniscus function can result in abnormal knee kinematics and, subsequently, more rapid degenerative changes of the knee articular surface. In the setting of anterior cruciate ligament tear, the posterolateral meniscus root is most commonly damaged. Several techniques exist for meniscus root repair; however, none have been shown to be clearly superior. We present a safe, effective, and reproducible arthroscopic transtibial technique for posterior horn lateral meniscal root tears.

A novel and cheap method of outside-in meniscal repair for anterior horn tears.

Project description:Outside-in meniscal repair techniques can involve the use of expensive passing devices that may not be readily available to all orthopaedic surgeons. There are many different ways to repair a meniscus, and we describe a quick and simple technique that requires no special equipment.

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.

Inside-Out Repair of Meniscal Ramp Lesions.

Project description:Meniscal ramp lesions have been reported to be present in 9% to 17% of patients undergoing anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. Detection at the time of arthroscopy can be accomplished based upon clinical suspicion and careful evaluation without the use of an accessory posteromedial portal. Options for surgical treatment include arthroscopic repair using an all-inside or inside-out technique. The purpose of this Technical Note is to detail our arthroscopic inside-out repair technique for meniscal ramp lesions.

Inside-Out Meniscal Repair: Medial and Lateral Approach.

Project description:Preservation of meniscal tissue has been proven to be the best approach in most cases of meniscal tears. Currently available techniques for treating a peripheral meniscal tear include inside-out, outside-in, and all-inside techniques. Each of these techniques present potential advantages and disadvantages. Despite technologic advances in all-inside devices, because of implant-related complications, cost concerns, and device availability, the inside-out technique is still the preferred method among many surgeons. Although the inside-out repair technique is considered more technically demanding and requires additional incisions, it has several advantages such as the possibility for an increased number of sutures, creating a stronger construct, and greater versatility in their placement. This article describes the inside-out meniscal repair technique with its corresponding posterolateral and posteromedial surgical approaches.

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.

Anterior Horn Meniscal Repair Using an Outside-In Suture Technique.

Project description:The menisci are important structures within the knee that play a critical role in maintaining proper stability, load distribution, and joint lubrication. Injury to the menisci has been found to significantly alter the complex biomechanics of the knee, and thus affect the health and longevity of the native joint. Tears involving the anterior horn are increasingly recognized as an important pathology. Although early treatment of meniscal tears focused primarily on removal of the injured tissue, recent attention on the long-term consequences of partial or total meniscectomy has led to increased attempts at meniscus repair whenever possible. Because of the location of anterior horn tears and the technical difficulty in accessing this location arthroscopically, an outside-in repair technique is ideal for treatment of these lesions. This technical note details our surgical technique of outside-in repair of anterior horn meniscal tears.

All-inside Techniques for Meniscal Radial Root Tear Repair.

Project description:Meniscal radial root tears can disrupt the load-bearing function of the meniscus and worsen instability in anterior cruciate ligament-deficient knees. Paracentral radial tears adjacent to the root (types 1, 2, and 4) repaired with a transtibial pullout suture technique can lead to over-medialization of the meniscal root and a high-tension nonanatomic repair. We propose 2 all-inside techniques for anatomic repair of medial and lateral meniscal radial root tears with (1) an all-inside meniscal repair device and (2) an antegrade suture passer. We present the technical requirements and tips for these techniques. For lateral meniscal radial root repair with an all-inside meniscal repair device, ideal viewing is from an anterolateral portal with device entry from an anteromedial portal to reduce the risk of vascular injury. We recommend at least 2 stitches across the tear, with the depth setting limited to 18 to 20 mm for a central stitch and 16 mm or less for a peripherally placed stitch. For root repair with an antegrade suture passer, viewing should be from an anteromedial portal with the passer entering from an anterolateral portal. At least 2 stitches should be placed across the tear, with 1 central and 1 peripheral or 1 superior and 1 inferior.
