Novel technique for repairing posterior medial meniscus root tears using porcine knees and biomechanical study.

Novel technique for repairing posterior medial meniscus root tears using porcine knees and biomechanical study.

Transtibial pullout suture (TPS) repair of posterior medial meniscus root (PMMR) tears was shown to achieve good clinical outcomes. The purpose of this study was to compare biomechanically, a novel technique designed to repair PMMR tears using tendon graft (TG) and conventional TPS repair. Twelve po...
