Steep Posterior Tibial Slope and Excessive Anterior Tibial Translation Are Associated With Increased Sagittal Meniscal Extrusion After Posterior Lateral Meniscus Root Repair Combined With Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

To (1) evaluate the clinical and radiographic outcomes of patients with primary anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) with type II posterior lateral meniscus root tear (PLMRT) repair and (2) identify whether increased anterior tibial subluxation of the lateral compartment (ATSLC) and steeper posterior tibial slope (PTS) are associated with sagittal lateral meniscal extrusion (LME).

Methods

Patients who underwent primary anatomic ACLR with concomitant type II PLMRTs using the all-inside side-to-side repair technique between November 2014 and September 2020 were identified. To be included, patients must have had a minimum of 2 years follow-up. All patients, including those with ATSLC and PTS and sagittal and coronal LME, were retrospectively reviewed clinica
