Sumario:In recent years there has been increased attention on preserving the menisci because they perform vital roles in maintaining knee joint homeostasis. The anterolateral (AL) meniscal root is particularly vulnerable during anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. When the AL root is iatrogenically injured, it is imperative that it is repaired in a timely fashion to prevent early-onset osteoarthritis. In this article we outline our knotless suture anchor repair for AL root tears.
