Arthroscopic Saucerization and Anatomic Repair of a Wrisberg Variant Discoid Lateral Meniscus: A Physeal‐Sparing Knotless Anchor Technique

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Discoid lateral meniscus (DLM) is a congenital variant of the knee characterized by an abnormally shaped meniscus prone to tearing and instability. When symptomatic, the treatment plan is based on the location and pattern of the tear, as well as the presence of instability.

Combined Management of Meniscus Root Tear and High Tibial Osteotomy: A Surgical Strategy Using 3‐Dimensional Printing

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Combining high tibial osteotomy with meniscal posterior root repair is technically challenging because of the limited metaphyseal bone stock, the proximity of the transtibial tunnel to the osteotomy site, and the risk of implant conflict or tibial fracture.

Evaluation of the Correlation Between Tear Meniscus Parameters and Conventional Dry Eye Tests

, 2013
Purpose: To evaluate the correlation between clinical tests, patient symptoms and spectral optical coherence tomography (OCT; RTVue, Optovue)-derived lower tear meniscus (TM) parameters and to verify sensitivity and specificity of TM parameters in the ...

Arthroscopic Stabilization of the Hypermobile Lateral Meniscus Using an All‐Inside Repair Technique

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract The hypermobile lateral meniscus is an uncommon cause of posterolateral knee pain and mechanical symptoms that often escapes standard imaging and is best confirmed by arthroscopy. A clinical stress maneuver combining knee flexion, valgus stress, and external rotation is described in this Technical Note as a simple adjunct to reproduce symptoms

All‐Inside Stabilization of Discoid Lateral Meniscus Popliteal Hiatus‐Related Instability Using Anterior Cord Release With Meniscus Retention

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Discoid lateral meniscus is a common cause of lateral knee pain, snapping, catching, and intermittent locking. Although saucerization combined with repair has been widely used, postoperative remodeling, reduced meniscal volume, extrusion, and degenerative changes on magnetic resonance imaging have raised concerns regarding meniscal resection ...

Anatomical significance of a posterior horn of medial meniscus: the relationship between its radial tear and cartilage degradation of joint surface

Sports Medicine, Arthroscopy, Rehabilitation, Therapy & Technology, 2010
Background Traumatic injury and surgical meniscectomy of a medial meniscus are known to cause subsequent knee osteoarthritis. However, the difference in the prevalence of osteoarthritis caused by the individual type of the medial meniscal tear has not ...

Meniscus Tear Morphology and Patient Demographics as Predictors of Treatment for Meniscal Tears: A Natural Language Processing Study

Orthopaedic Journal of Sports Medicine
Background: Meniscus tears occur in tandem with other degenerative changes at the knee joint, making interpretation of imaging findings challenging. Meniscus tears, commonly treated by general physicians and musculoskeletal specialists, have significant ...

Arthroscopic Repair of Medial Meniscus Posterior Root Tear: Transtibial Fixation With 2 Lasso‐Loop Sutures and 1 Samsung Medical Center Sliding Knot for Tensioning Secured by a Tibial Button

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Medial meniscus posterior root tears disrupt the circumferential load‐transmission function of the meniscus and negatively affect knee biomechanics. This technical note describes a reliable and reproducible arthroscopic repair technique using 2 lasso‐loop sutures and 1 Samsung Medical Center sliding knot through a single transtibial tunnel ...
