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 کاملPull-out strength and stiffness of meniscal repair using absorbable arrows or Ti-Cron vertical and horizontal loop sutures.
We tested pull-out strength and linear stiffness of meniscal repair using bioabsorbable arrows and vertical and horizontal loop sutures in fresh-frozen bovine lateral menisci. In phase I, menisci repaired either with 2-0 Ti-Cron vertical or horizontal loop suture, or 10-, 13-, or 16-mm Meniscus Arrows were loaded to failure at 12.5 mm/sec. In phase II, we examined the number of barbs engaged an...
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 کاملArthroscopic meniscal repair using the BioStinger.
PURPOSE Biodegradable devices are available for all-inside meniscal repairs. One device, the BioStinger (Linvatec, Largo, FL), is made of molded poly-L-lactic acid. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of and any adverse events associated with meniscus repair using this device. TYPE OF STUDY Nonrandomized prospective cohort study. METHODS A prospective, consecutive, 3...
متن کاملAll-inside Arthroscopic Meniscal Repair Technique Using a Midbody Accessory Portal
Treatment of symptomatic meniscal tears continues to evolve as we improve our understanding of the biomechanical role of the meniscus and its long-term importance to the health of the knee joint. Suture repair of meniscal tears is challenging, yet the incidence of repairs among our colleagues continues to rise as we aim to preserve meniscal tissue. Many elements of performing a repair are tedio...
