Arthroscopic Medial Meniscus Allograft Transplant With Re-tensionable Suture Anchor Fixation and Centralization Stabilization Suture.

ABSTRACT: Meniscus allograft transplant (MAT) can provide meaningful improvement in patient outcomes in those who are otherwise meniscus deficient. A common finding in the setting of a failed MAT is meniscus extrusion. Meniscus centralization is a technique performed to reduce the meniscus to its intra-articular location and has been shown to improve postoperative pain and function in patients with an extruded meniscus. Prior techniques have been described for meniscus centralization in the setting of a meniscus root tear or with the use of single tension devices that are tensioned after meniscocapsular fixation. We present a minimally invasive technique for meniscus centralization that can be performed in conjunction with MAT using a centralization stabilization suture and re-tensionable root-fixat
