Arthroscopic all-inside meniscal repair demonstrates a low overall implant failure rate of 1.03%. Specific implants showed higher waste, warranting further investigation by surgeons and industry.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopaedic Surgery
  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Sports Medicine

Background:

  • Meniscal tears are common knee injuries requiring surgical intervention.
  • Arthroscopic all-inside meniscal repair is a prevalent surgical technique.
  • Implant performance is critical for successful meniscal repair outcomes.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To determine the percentage of implants successfully deployed during arthroscopic all-inside meniscal repair.
  • To assess the intra-operative failure or waste rate of various meniscal repair implants.
  • To identify specific implants with higher failure rates in clinical practice.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective data query of meniscus repair procedures (CPT codes 29882, 29883) from June 2020 to June 2023.
  • Analysis of implant usage and intra-operative failure data from a single institution.

Biotribological Testing and Analysis of Articular Cartilage Sliding against Metal for Implants

Published on: May 14, 2020

  • Calculation of implant success rate by dividing wasted implants by total implants used.

    • Main Results:

    • A total of 1,026 patients and 3,867 meniscal implants were analyzed.
    • The overall implant failure or waste rate was low at 1.03% (40 out of 3,867 implants).
    • Specific implants exhibited higher failure rates: JuggerStitchTM Curved (9.38%), NOVOSTITCHTM Cartridge 0 Suture (2.44%), and TRUESPANTM 12 Degrees (2.11%).

    Conclusions:

    • The overall failure rate for implants used in arthroscopic all-inside meniscal repair is low.
    • Certain implants demonstrate higher waste rates, necessitating attention from manufacturers and surgeons.
    • Further research into implant failure rates and associated costs in meniscal repair is recommended.
