Abstract

Surgical treatment of radial tears in the junction of the anterior horn and body of the lateral meniscus is indicated in the acute setting and with failure of nonoperative therapy. There are several options for arthroscopic repair; however, these are more technically difficult to perform because of the current surgical instruments available to address these tears. An outside-in technique is the current standard of care for this tear location and pattern. We present a technique for an all-inside side-to-side repair of the lateral meniscus for radial tears in the junction of the anterior horn and body.
