Abstract
The medial meniscus is one of the most commonly injured structures in the knee. When the importance of its proper function is well understood, an adequate management in meniscus tear is a key issue for whole knee joint well-being. Although it has been proven that meniscal repairs have better long-term results than meniscectomy, there is still no consensus as to which suturing technique is the best. An all-inside technique seems to allow for the most anatomic repairs with the greatest preservation of surrounding soft tissues. Our aim is to show that there are no technical limits for all-inside meniscal repairs with nonabsorbable sutures. We describe the technique and some tricks for medial meniscus repair in this Technical Note.
