Materials & Methods: the current study started in January 2014 till June 2016, including 27 patients with MMPRT who underwent arthroscopic pullout suture repair surgery. Of these, 25 patients were analyzed, clinical results by using Lysholm score and international knee documentation committee (IKDC) and magnetic imaging resonance (MRI) were evaluated, as a preoperative state as well as at the last follow-up visit. Results: Improving mean value of Lysholm score in all patients from the poor score in 15 patients as well as a fair score in 10 patients preoperatively to good score in 19 patients and an excellent score in 6 patients the last follow-up visit. IKDC men value become much better it changed from 43.36 ±5.35 preoperatively to 81.89 ± 8.48 at the final follow-up (P ˂ 0.001).
