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

ABSTRACT: 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 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.

Knotless Medial Meniscus Posterior Root Repair.

Project description:Medial meniscus posterior root tears are common injuries, especially in the Asian world. This injury must be repaired where indicated to restore knee biomechanics and prevent arthritis. Suturing the meniscus using suture tapes provides good hold of the tissue. The use of a 70° arthroscope and creation of a transseptal portal improve visualization of the posterior compartment. Creation of a high posteromedial portal achieves the correct trajectory for the suture anchor insertion. A knotless suture anchor can be used to fix the posterior root at its anatomic attachment site. This obliterates the need for transtibial drilling for a suture pull-out repair or for knot tying and suture shuttling as for a conventional suture anchor.

Arthroscopic Knotless, Tensionable All-Suture Anchor Bankart Repair.

Project description:Surgical management for glenohumeral instability has advanced to provide stronger fixation and to be less invasive. Arthroscopic suture anchor repair has been the gold standard for isolated capsulolabral tears over the years. Despite the ability of the solid suture anchors to handle physiologic load, they can present challenges such as chondral damage due to anchor size and imperfect angulation, osteolysis, anchor breakage, revision drilling, difficulty of revision surgery with accompanied bone loss, and compromised postoperative magnetic resonance imaging quality. Recently, knotless all-suture anchors have been introduced as a technique to overcome these challenges. These anchors lack a rigid component and can be placed in a tunnel of smaller diameter, thereby allowing for maintenance of glenoid bone stock. The purpose of this Technical Note is to describe our preferred surgical technique with a minimally invasive approach for the fixation of capsulolabral tears using a knotless all-suture anchor construct.

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.

Lateral Epicondylitis Debridement and Repair Using Knotless Suture Anchor.

Project description:Lateral epicondylitis, or tennis elbow, involves degeneration of the extensor carpi radialis brevis tendon and is often self-limiting, with surgery reserved for recalcitrant cases. Surgical management of tennis elbow consists primarily of either debridement alone or debridement with repair. Surgical repair is often performed using either a suture or a suture anchor. Good outcomes have been reported using standard repair methods; however, complications exist. Complications include potential loss of grip strength with debridement alone, as well as soft-tissue irritation caused by a prominent suture or knot stack after suture repair and suture anchor techniques. We describe a technique for debridement and repair of the extensor carpi radialis brevis tendon to the lateral epicondyle of the humerus using a knotless suture anchor, allowing for a watertight anatomic repair, maximum preservation of grip strength, and absence of a knot stack and resultant suture prominence.

All-Inside Arthroscopic Anatomic Anterior Talofibular Ligament Repair for Anterolateral Ankle Instability Using a Knotless Suture Anchor, Allowing for Tension Adjustment.

Project description:In recent years, arthroscopic anterior talofibular ligament (ATFL) repair techniques have been increasingly used for chronic ankle instability. Besides permitting the treatment of several comorbidities, arthroscopic techniques are applied to minimize the need for aggressive surgery and improve the assessment of anatomic structures. We describe our surgical technique for all-arthroscopic anatomic ATFL repair using a knotless anchor, which can adjust suture tension under direct visualization using a self-locking mechanism. Thus, this technique diminishes the chance of repaired ligament separation from its attachment by obtaining the desired tension. Moreover, its knotless property allows the avoidance of some complications such as neuritis and pain related to bulky knots.

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.

Anatomic Labral Repair in the Hip Using a Knotless Tensionable Suture Anchor.

Project description:To perform a proper labral repair, most surgeons use anchors to secure the labrum to the acetabular bone. We aim to describe a technique for labral repair with a knotless tensionable suture anchor. This technique uses a looped suture configuration, allowing selective tensioning of the repair to maintain the anatomic suction seal of the hip. The use of this technique is easily reproducible and reduces the surgical time compared with previous techniques.

Single-Portal, Single-Anchor Repair of a Superior Third Subscapularis Tear Using a Self-Punching Knotless Soft Suture Anchor.

Project description:Numerous techniques exist for arthroscopic subscapularis repair with varying degrees of complexity based on tear morphology, all of which have established satisfactory outcomes in function and patient satisfaction. Arthroscopic subscapularis repair can require several working portals and suture anchors, increasing both technical complexity and operative time. This Technical Note describes an arthroscopic repair of a superior one-third subscapularis tear using a self-punching knotless soft suture anchor through a single anterior working portal. Thus, we offer a unique approach to arthroscopic repair of superior one-third subscapularis tears that is time-saving, reproducible, and highly efficient while minimizing iatrogenic damage and postoperative complications.

Suture Anchor Repair for a Medial Meniscus Posterior Root Tear Combined With Arthroscopic Meniscal Centralization and Open Wedge High Tibial Osteotomy.

Project description:Medial meniscus posterior root tear (MMPRT) is now attracting increased attention as a risk factor for the development of osteoarthritis. However, the healing rate after root repair by the suture anchor technique or the pull-out technique is still low. Here we report on a technique of MMPRT repair using suture anchor combined with arthroscopic meniscal centralization and open wedge high tibial osteotomy (OWHTO). The purposes of this technique are (1) to distribute the meniscal hoop tension between the root repair site and the centralization site and (2) to reduce the load on medial meniscus by OWHTO. The routine exposure for OWHTO with superficial medial collateral ligament release creates good visualization for arthroscopic root repair. The first anchor is inserted on the medial edge of the medial tibial plateau, and the second anchor is inserted on the root attachment through a posteromedial portal. After tying the knots, OWHTO could be performed without interference between the suture anchors and the screws of the plate for fixing the osteotomy. Although further follow-up is required, this technique could improve the outcomes after root repair, as well as have some technical advantages.
