This study describes a new surgical technique for combined medial meniscal transplantation and opening wedge high tibial osteotomy for meniscal-deficient knees with malalignment. The technique allows wider medial joint opening, better visualization of the medial compartment as well as easier meniscal graft positioning and suturing. This is achieved by transplanting the meniscus after superficial medial collateral ligament release and before osteotomy opening and fixation.
本研究描述了一种新的手术技术,用于治疗合并内侧半月板缺失和对线不良的膝关节,即联合内侧半月板移植和楔形胫骨高位截骨术。该技术可扩大内侧关节开口,更好地观察内侧间室,更方便地定位和缝合半月板移植物。这是通过在浅层内侧副韧带松解后、截骨前进行半月板移植来实现的。
