The benefits of preserving the meniscus are well-established. Several arthroscopic meniscal repair techniques have been described, such as the inside-out, outside-in, and all-inside. All-inside self-retrieving suture devices can be used to repair vertical, horizontal, and radial tears. However, this technique becomes difficult with large tears, as the jaw of the device cannot reach the peripheral edge of the meniscal tear. We present an all-inside technique using circumferential compression stitches to address large peripheral meniscus tears.
保留半月板的益处已得到充分证实。已经描述了几种关节镜下半月板修复技术,如由内向外、由外向内和全内技术。全内自取回缝线装置可用于修复垂直、水平和放射状撕裂。然而,对于大的撕裂,这种技术会变得困难,因为该装置的钳口无法到达半月板撕裂的周边边缘。我们提出一种使用环形加压缝线的全内技术来处理半月板周边大撕裂。
