    Area of Science:

    • Orthopedic Surgery
    • Knee Arthroscopy
    • Sports Medicine

    Background:

    • Operative arthroscopy is increasingly the preferred method for managing knee disorders.
    • Arthroscopy has significantly advanced meniscus surgery techniques.
    • Endoscopic procedures are now feasible for all meniscus lesions.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe a specific endoscopic technique for meniscus surgery.
    • To detail principles for flap tear, bucket handle, and subtotal meniscectomy.
    • To evaluate the efficacy and practicality of this arthroscopic approach.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized a specialized knife for endoscopic meniscus repair.
    • Applied principles for flap tear, bucket handle, and subtotal meniscectomy.
