Marrow stimulating technique to augment meniscus repair

Kevin B Freedman et al. Arthroscopy. 2003 Sep.

Abstract

Several techniques exist to increase the rate of healing of meniscal tears after repair. We describe a simple arthroscopic technique of microfracture to the intercondylar notch. This technique can provide marrow elements to the site of meniscus repair to aid in meniscal healing at the time of repair.
