All-Inside Meniscal Repair

چکیده
All-inside meniscal repair has become a popular technique. The number of meniscal repairs done in the United States has increased dramatically since the introduction of the Meniscal Arrow (Linvatec Corp, Largo, FL). Although these devices are easy to use, there have been several compliations reported with their use. Newer devices (Mitek RapidLoc and Smith and Nephew Fas-T-Fix) allow tensioning of the construct after insertion. There are also problems and pitfalls with their use, but improvements continue to be made in all-inside meniscal repair devices.
