Abstract:
There are various treatment options for medial meniscus posterior root tears, such as conservative management, meniscectomy, pull-out repair, and suture anchor repair. However, the ultimate repair technique for optimal meniscal healing remains a topic of discussion, as each technique has its own set of risks and pitfalls. This technique provides a stable and straightforward approach that minimizes fixation-related concerns. However, to determine the optimal applicability of this medial meniscus posterior root tear repair method, further research is needed to compare the biomechanical properties of this repair method with established techniques.
