  • Title: Innovative techniques in arthroscopic meniscal repair.
    Author: Diduch DR, Ferguson RE, Tadje JP, Edlich RF.
    Journal: J Long Term Eff Med Implants; 1999; 9(4):367-76. PubMed ID: 10847973.
    Abstract:
    Advanced techniques for arthroscopic repair of meniscal tears offer new ways to repair the meniscus and reduce the rate of long-term arthrosis. The new all-inside technique reduces complications, morbidity, and surgical time as compared to the inside-out or outside-in methods of repair. Application of biomaterial technology to new implants used for all-inside arthroscopy show early promising clinical results. The purpose of this report is to describe new biomaterials and techniques being used successfully in arthroscopic surgery on the meniscus.
