    Author: Mullins RC, Drez DJ.
    Journal: Arthroscopy; 1992; 8(2):267-8. PubMed ID: 1637445.
    Abstract:
    This article describes a simple technique for the use of a #66 Beaver blade to assist in the resection of bucket-handle meniscus tears. This is a standard ophthalmologic blade and should be readily available in most operating rooms. The technique described is a simple, inexpensive means of resecting bucket-handle tears without changing portals during the procedure.
