Posterolateral approach for all-inside arthroscopic lateral meniscus repair in athletes: technique and outcomes.

Introduction: The past 2 decades have been marked by substantial progress in our knowledge of meniscus anatomy, function, and biomechanics, and also by the shifting of the surgical treatment of meniscal lesions from traditional meniscectomy towards arthroscopic repair to get away from the early osteoarthritis associated with meniscectomy. Posterior horn injuries of the lateral meniscus (LM) have been less studied due to their lower incidence and also due to the historical technical complexity of performing a repair in the posterolateral compartment.

Materials And Methods: A retrospective analysis of prospectively collected data was performed of all athletic patients who had a peripheral longitudinal tear of the lateral meniscal posterior horn and who underwent at least one repair procedure with a posterolateral approach between 2014 and 2018.

Functional results and survival after surgery for peripheral skeletal metastasis: A 434-case multicenter retrospective series.

Introduction: Peripheral skeletal metastasis (PSM) has a negative impact on quality of life. New treatments for the primary tumor or the osteolysis hold out hope of improved survival. The few published French series were small, and we therefore undertook a multicenter retrospective analysis of PSM surgery between 2005 and December 2016, with the aim of assessing: 1) rate and type of complications, 2) functional results, and 3) overall survival and corresponding risk factors.
