This report describes an arthroscopic technique that utilizes a handmade suspensory fixation system designed to optimize suture tension and provide stable fixation in meniscal root repair. The technique allows for simultaneous and adjustable tensioning of all sutures, aiming to enhance stability and improve clinical outcomes. While further validation through clinical studies is required, this technique has the potential to increase the success of medial meniscus posterior root tear repairs and improve long-term functional outcomes for patients.
