biostudies-literatureUnknown13(2)Ramos Murillo PDLateral meniscus hypermobility is a special condition in which the posterior horn of the lateral meniscus exhibits excessive mobility. This condition can cause pain and locking in the knee, especially during kneeling, deep flexion, or squatting. In this article, we present a surgical technique for the reinsertion of the posterior root of the external meniscus in cases of hypermobility without detachment. The objective is to increase the tension of the meniscotibial and meniscal popliteal ligaments to achieve meniscal stability. The procedure involves suturing the meniscal root and fixation using a knotless implant through a transosseous tunnel. This technique has proven to be effective in stabilizing the lateral meniscus in patients with hypermobility.Arthroscopy techniques102869https://www.ebi.ac.uk/biostudies/studies/S-EPMC10907963biostudies-literatureReinsertion of Posterior Meniscal Root for Management of Hypermobile Lateral Meniscus: Description of a Surgical Technique.PMC10907963Penaherrera Carrillo CPRamos Murillo PDRamos Guarderas PAVargas Morante MJArteaga Guerrero GFRamos Murillo DAfalseReinsertion of Posterior Meniscal Root for Management of Hypermobile Lateral Meniscus: Description of a Surgical Technique.Lateral meniscus hypermobility is a special condition in which the posterior horn of the lateral meniscus exhibits excessive mobility.
