Posterior Medial Meniscus Root Repair Using Two Transtibial Tunnels with Modified Mason-Allen Stitches: A Technical Note.

Complete tear of the posterior medial meniscus root can result in a loss of hoop tension and increased contact pressure. Thus, medial meniscus posterior root tear (MMPRT) is increasingly recognized as an important pathology. Although several surgical techniques for MMPRT have recently been introduced, the ideal technique is not yet established. This technical note is aimed at introducing a novel surgical technique using two transtibial tunnels with modified Mason-Allen stitches in the treatment of MMPRT.
