This study introduces a cost-effective, microinvasive meniscal suture technique. This modification of the all-inside method uses a simple needle, making advanced meniscus repair accessible in resource-limited settings.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Sports Medicine
  • Biomedical Engineering

Background:

  • Meniscal repair techniques have evolved significantly since the first suture in 1885.
  • All-inside meniscal repair devices are currently prevalent but expensive.
  • High costs associated with current devices limit their accessibility in various healthcare settings.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe a novel, microinvasive meniscal suture technique.
  • To present a modification of the all-inside technique using a disposable procedure needle.
  • To offer a more accessible and cost-effective alternative for meniscus repair.

Main Methods:

  • A microinvasive meniscal suture technique was developed as a modification of the all-inside approach.
  • The technique utilizes a standard, disposable 40 x 12 mm procedure needle.

  • The procedure focuses on simplicity and minimal invasiveness.

    • Main Results:

    • The described technique offers a lower-cost alternative to existing all-inside devices.
    • The use of a disposable needle simplifies the procedure and reduces reliance on specialized equipment.
    • The microinvasive nature potentially reduces patient recovery time and surgical complexity.

    Conclusions:

    • The proposed microinvasive meniscal suture technique provides a viable, cost-effective option for meniscus repair.
    • This modification can increase the adoption of all-inside techniques in resource-limited environments.
    • The technique holds the potential to broaden access to advanced meniscus repair procedures globally.
