pubmed:abstractText |
The authors present 39 patients submitted to meniscus repair, and then analyze the various techniques used for suturing, emphasizing advantages, disadvantages, and complications. The results obtained with arthrotomic repair are not significantly different from those obtained with arthroscopic repair, except for the fact that the former method is less invasive. The stability of the knee is of essential importance to healing of a meniscal lesion. A long-term evaluation of the results obtained with meniscus repair is needed, as repetitive tearing has been described even after as many as three years.
