In this study we will formulate the following research questions: what is the rate of survival and failure? What are the risk factors associated with failure? And what are the functional results after meniscal repair surgery?
Material And Methods: ambispective study from 2001 to 2021 of patients with repairable meniscal injury with all-in meniscal suture devices. The survival and failure ratio were obtained with the Kaplan-Meier test, the risk factors associated with meniscal suture failure were assessed with the logistic regression test, and the pre- and post-surgical functional results were estimated with the test.
