Abstract

The lateral meniscus is vital in dissipating the force in the lateral compartment of the knee. A complete radial tear of the meniscus can lead to extrusion, rendering it nonfunctional and resulting in deleterious arthritic changes to the lateral compartment. Arthroscopic repair of a complete radial tear of the lateral meniscus poses a challenge to orthopaedic surgeons. Although some would advocate for meniscectomy, we present a technique for an outside-in repair using 3 sutures and standard arthroscopic portals. Overall, this provides for an excellent reduction of the meniscus.
