Arthroscopic Centralization Technique for Isolated Meniscotibial Ligament Insufficiency Leading to Medial Meniscal Extrusion: Knotless Anchor‐Based Technique

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: Medial meniscal extrusion, defined as a 3-mm external displacement of the meniscus, is often associated with ligamentous abnormalities and leads to loss of the stress distribution function of the meniscus. To restore meniscal position and function, meniscal centralization techniques have been developed. This study presents the pearls and pitfalls of an arthroscopic technique of medial meniscal centralization using a knotless soft anchor.
