Video Summary
Rachel Muscott details a meniscal transplantation technique using a posterior bone plug fixation combined with anterior soft tissue fixation. After arthroscopic diagnosis confirming meniscus deficiency, a 7mm posterior bone plug is prepared and inserted into an 8mm bone tunnel drilled at the posterior root attachment. The meniscus is secured using alternating sutures, a suture anchor for the bone plug, and an all-inside fixator device at the posterior horn root. The anterior horn, fixed only with soft tissue sutures, is secured via an anterior suture anchor, avoiding an extra tunnel and reducing risks during concurrent ACL reconstruction, ensuring proper load distribution and preventing meniscal extrusion.
