Arthroscopic meniscus repair: inside-out technique vs. Biofix meniscus arrow.

A retrospective study evaluated meniscal suturing using an inside-out technique vs. an all-inside technique (Biofix meniscus Arrow). Fifty-five knees in 55 patients who underwent closed meniscus repair between 1985 and 1995 were divided in two groups: 20 managed by an inside-out technique; and 35 managed by an all-inside technique.

Long-term assessment of arthroscopic meniscus repair: a 13-year follow-up study.

A prospective study was set up to evaluate meniscal suturing using an inside-out technique. Of an initial group of 20 patients who underwent closed meniscus repair between 1985 and 1988 using an inside-out technique, 13 were studied. All patients were subjected to a clinical examination and a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) investigation.
