| Popis: |
Medial meniscus extrusion is commonly seen in patients who have medial meniscus posterior root tear. Extruded meniscus results in faster progression of knee arthrosis. Thus, it is important to reduce the extrusion as well as treat the cause of extrusion. This Technical Note describes an all-inside arthroscopic technique to reduce the meniscus extrusion. An additional medial portal has to be made along with the standard anteromedial and anterolateral portals. A double-loaded suture anchor is used to secure the extrusion of the meniscus in its native position. Thus, making a transosseous tibial tunnel is not required. It is easy to perform and is an efficient technique. |
