Full-Thickness Radial Medial Meniscal Tear: Fixation With Inside-Out Technique With Tibial Knotless Suture Anchors

Complete radial tears of the meniscus render the entirety of the meniscus functionally incompetent (known as an ameniscal state); therefore, attempts at repair are essential.

Zusammenfassung:Complete radial tears of the meniscus render the entirety of the meniscus functionally incompetent (known as an ameniscal state); therefore, attempts at repair are essential. Although various techniques have been described, repair failures continue to frequently occur, especially with the medial meniscus. Inside-out repair and anchoring of the preserved meniscus to both the capsule and tibia may offer the advantage of a more robust repair. The objective of this Technical Note is to describe a method of repair for complete radial tears of the medial meniscus using a combination of inside-out sutures and secondary reinforcement to the tibia using all-suture knotless anchors.
