Arthroscopic All-Inside Repair of Medial Meniscus Grade 2 Horizontal Cleavage Tear Using Additional Posteromedial Portal.

ABSTRACT: Management of intrasubstance horizontal cleavage meniscal lesions of microtraumatic origin remains poorly defined in young patients. For grade 2 lesions resistant to conservative measures, the standard technique is debridement of the intrasubstance tear and open suture repair via a posteromedial approach. The objective of this Technical Note is to propose an arthroscopic alternative to this open technique, using an arthroscopic additional posteromedial portal. This technique facilitates an approach to the lesion via its peripheral portion without creating an iatrogenic lesion of the free edge of the meniscus, which is located in the white zone and thus exhibits limited vascularity.

Arthroscopic All-Inside Medial Meniscus Extrusion Reduction.

Project description:Medial meniscus extrusion is commonly seen in patients who have medial meniscus posterior root tear. Extruded meniscus results in faster progression of knee arthrosis. Thus, it is important to reduce the extrusion as well as treat the cause of extrusion. This Technical Note describes an all-inside arthroscopic technique to reduce the meniscus extrusion. An additional medial portal has to be made along with the standard anteromedial and anterolateral portals. A double-loaded suture anchor is used to secure the extrusion of the meniscus in its native position. Thus, making a transosseous tibial tunnel is not required. It is easy to perform and is an efficient technique.

All arthroscopic medial meniscus inside out repair- Technical note.

Project description:Concomitant meniscal injuries are common in patients with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) insufficiency. Along with ACL reconstruction, meniscal repair offers better outcomes. This requires multiple incisions for both procedures. We present a novel technique of medial meniscus inside out repair using only the tibial tunnel wound without making an additional posteromedial incision. This is the first such description of this novel technique in a 21 year old male who underwent ACL reconstruction along with bucket handle medial meniscal repair.

Horizontal Cleavage Meniscus Tear Treated With All-inside Circumferential Compression Stitches.

Project description:Horizontal cleavage meniscus tears are a common orthopedic injury often treated with partial or total meniscectomy versus repair. This Technical Note presents a technique for all-inside repair with uniform compression of the superior and inferior leaflets by placement of multiple circumferential compression stitches using an all-inside self-retrieving suture passing device. The currently described technique provides several advantages for all-inside repair of a horizontal cleavage tear: (1) eliminates the need for a posterior incision, (2) minimizes the risk of neurovascular injury, (3) uses standard arthroscopy portals (or small modifications), and (4) requires only a single suture deployment with a self-retrieving device for each circumferential compression stitch. The resulting circumferential stitch provides uniform compression to the superior and inferior leaflets, promoting meniscal healing. This configuration has been shown to have the highest load to failure of all repair patterns.

Submeniscal Portal for Horizontal Cleavage Tear with Parameniscal Cyst of the Lateral Meniscus.

Project description:Horizontal cleavage tears of the medial and lateral meniscus can be difficult to treat using the standard anteromedial or anterolateral arthroscopy portals. In this Technical Note, we present a new surgical technique to better manage the inferior leaflet of horizontal cleavage tears of the medial and lateral meniscus and their associated parameniscal cysts.

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.

Augmentation of the Pullout Repair of a Medial Meniscus Posterior Root Tear by Arthroscopic Centralization.

Project description:The meniscus roots are critical for meniscus function in preserving correct knee kinematics and avoiding meniscus extrusion and, consequently, in the progression of osteoarthritis. Several techniques exist for medial meniscus posterior root tear repair; however, current surgical techniques have been proved to fail to reduce meniscus extrusion, which has been shown to be associated with development of osteoarthritis, although significant improvements in the postoperative clinical findings have been achieved. This Technical Note describes an arthroscopic technique for the medial meniscus posterior root tear in which a pullout repair is augmented by a centralization technique to restore and maintain the medial meniscus function by efficiently reducing meniscus extrusion.

Arthroscopic Inside-Out Repair of a Meniscus Bucket-Handle Tear Augmented With Bone Marrow Aspirate Concentrate.

Project description:Bucket-handle tears of the meniscus comprise nearly 10% of all meniscus tears and commonly affect the young male population. Displacement of the free segment can lead to significant pain and disability, necessitating reduction and surgical treatment. General contraindications include malalignment, severe arthritis, significant comorbidities, or chronic asymptomatic tears, but otherwise repair should almost always be performed. Options for surgical treatment include partial meniscectomy and arthroscopic repair using an all-inside, outside-in, or inside-out technique. The purpose of this Technical Note is to detail our arthroscopic inside-out repair technique augmented with bone marrow aspirate concentrate.

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.

The Posteromedial-Transseptal Portal for Arthroscopic Suture Hook Repair of Posterior Horn Tears and Popliteomeniscal Fascicles Tears of the Lateral Meniscus

Project description:We present a convenient and safe arthroscopic technique for suturing the lateral meniscus. In this technique, the clinician establishes a conventional posteromedial approach in the figure-of-four position of the knee by using the anterolateral and anteromedial observation approaches. Behind the posterior cruciate ligament, an operational approach is formed through the posterior mediastinum of the knee joint. Through this approach, suture hook can be brought to the posterior horn and body of the lateral meniscus, thus simplifying the suture of the lateral meniscus. We have used this technique to finish all-inside suture using suture hooks in a variety of types of lateral meniscal injuries, including longitudinal posterior horn tears, bucket handle meniscus tears, and tears around the popliteal hiatus area. Compared with traditional lateral meniscal all-inside suture technology through anteromedial or anterolateral approaches, this technology can suture more accurately, safely, and conveniently, avoid the involvement of the popliteal tendon suture, and the lower risk of complications such as popliteal vascular and nerve injury occur. Technique Video Video 1 Introduction of the posteromedial-transseptal portal for arthroscopic suture hook repair. The key steps of the repair of posterior horn tears and popliteomeniscal fascicles tears of lateral meniscus with modified technique were illustrated.
