Abstract:
Concomitant medial meniscus posterior horn root tears and lateral meniscus posterior horn root tears are rare in occurrence. There is limited literature on the simultaneous repair of medial and lateral meniscus root tears, with ACL reconstruction. We discuss management of concomitant medial meniscus posterior horn root tear (MMPHRT), lateral meniscus posterior horn root tear (LMPHRT), and anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tear. We highlight the surgical technique in which we perform a repair of both medial and lateral meniscus posterior horn root repairs with ACL reconstruction. We explain the sequence of such a repair to avoid tunnel coalescence.
