Marrow stimulating technique to augment meniscus repair.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Several techniques exist to increase the rate of healing of meniscal tears after repair. We describe a simple arthroscopic technique of microfracture to the intercondylar notch. This technique can provide marrow elements to the site of meniscus repair to aid in meniscal healing at the time of repair.

Surgical reattachment of medial meniscus posterior root tear (MMPRT) with transtibial sutures can delay the presenceof medial knee joint compartment osteoarthritis. Most suture configurations are placed five mm away from the tornmargin in the meniscal substance which is already degenerated and may decrease the pull out strengths of repairconstruct. The number of meniscus penet...
متن کاملMeniscal Repair With Fibrin Clot Augmentation
Meniscal injuries and meniscal loss are associated with changes in knee kinematics and loading, ultimately leading to poor functional outcomes and increased risk of progression to osteoarthritis. Biomechanical studies have shown restored knee function, and clinical studies have reported improved outcomes and decreased risk of osteoarthritis after meniscal repair. This has led orthopaedic surgeo...
متن کاملClinical Results of Meniscal Repair Using Submeniscal Horizontal Sutures
Background: Parts of the implants placed over the meniscus during meniscal repair can wear down the cartilage in the contact zones and cause chronic synovitis. Placing horizontal sutures under the meniscus may overcome this potential hazard. The purpose of this prospective study was to evaluate the midterm results of arthroscopic meniscal repair using submeniscally placed out-in horizontal sut...
متن کاملMeniscus repair: considerations in treatment and update of clinical results.
The meniscus plays an important role in the function of the knee. Preservation of the meniscus is preferred if possible when considering treatment of a meniscus tear. A thorough understanding of the anatomy of the meniscus, the structure, the mechanics, and other factors of meniscal healing are critical when evaluating the torn meniscus for a reparative procedure. Many options for meniscus repa...

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 s...
