Clinical Results of Meniscal Repair Related to the Arthroscopic Zone Subdivision
نویسندگان
چکیده
Methods: According to our clinical practice of arthroscopic meniscal suture repair, we subdivide the injured meniscus into four zones: zone I, the anterior horn; zone II, the anterior lateral part; zone III, the posterior lateral part; zone IV, the posterior horn. According to our method of arthroscopic zone-subdivision of the meniscus, the injured site of 26 menisci were zone I, 189 were zone II, 85 were zone III and 68 were zone IV. Three hundred and sixty-eight patients were followed-up by 48~60 months (average 52 months). The change of knee symptoms and function were observed and the functional score of the knee was evaluated.

Clinical 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 کاملArthroscopic Meniscal Repair: “Modified Outside-In Technique”
Background: Despite the introduction of different techniques for meniscal repair, no single procedure is superior in all situations. The new method for meniscal repair named “ modified outside-in technique ” aims to achieve higher primary fixation strength by an alternative suture technique as well as avoid disadvantages of outside-in, inside-out, and all-inside suture procedures. Additionally...

متن کاملResults of meniscal repair using a bioabsorbable screw.
PURPOSE With most all-inside arthroscopic meniscal repair devices, the surgeon has no need for additional incisions or arthroscopic knot tying, and surgical time is decreased compared with traditional suture repair. Although previous studies have examined the pullout strength of various all-inside devices, clinical data is lacking and has been presented for only a few implants. This study evalu...
متن کاملMeniscal debridement with an arthroscopic radiofrequency wand versus an arthroscopic shaver: comparative effects on menisci and underlying articular cartilage.
PURPOSE Meniscal debridement with an arthroscopic radiofrequency (RF) wand versus an arthroscopic shaver and their comparative effects on menisci and underlying articular cartilage were studied. METHODS When repair is not feasible, degenerative or post-traumatic meniscal tears often need debridement. Six fresh bovine knees were harvested, the tibial plateau was dissected free from the femoral...
