Abstract

Meniscal repair, healing, and survival have been demonstrated in the literature. Meniscal preservation is, however, not always possible. We present a technique that may aid the surgeon in difficult bucket handle resections by stabilizing a portion of the meniscus with a “suture retractor” prior to resecting either a posterior or anterior meniscal horn. This technique may also be modified to prepare the inner rim when one is performing meniscal repair.
