Innovative techniques in arthroscopic meniscal repair

Advanced techniques for arthroscopic repair of meniscal tears offer new way s to repair the meniscus and reduce the rate of long-term arthrosis. The ne w 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 s how early promising clinical results. The purpose of this report is to desc ribe new biomaterials and techniques being used successfully in arthroscopi c surgery on the meniscus.
