Sumario:Ramp lesions play a significant role in both anteroposterior and rotational knee stability. Ramp lesions are difficult to diagnose clinically as well as on magnetic resonance imaging. Arthroscopic identification by visualizing the posterior compartment and probing via the posteromedial portal will confirm the diagnosis of ramp lesion. Failure to address this lesion properly will lead to poor knee kinematics, residual knee laxity, and increased chances of failure of reconstructed anterior cruciate ligament. Here, we describe a simple arthroscopic surgical technique to repair ramp lesion, the pass, park, and tie at the end, via 2 posteromedial portals using a knee scorpion suture passing device.
