Meniscal Allograft Transplantation: State of the Art

Natasha Trentacosta et al. Sports Med Arthrosc Rev. 2016 Jun.

Meniscal allograft transplantation has evolved over the years to provide a state-of-the-art technique for the sports medicine surgeon to utilize in preserving contact mechanics and function of the knee in irreparable meniscal pathology. However, this procedure continues to spark considerable debate on proper tissue processing techniques, acceptable indications, methods of implantation, and potential long-term outcomes.
