Video Summary
The speaker discusses technical aspects of lateral meniscus repair during ACL reconstruction, emphasizing there is no limit to repair efforts. Key points include thoroughly checking for root tears, knowing precise anatomy for anatomic reconstruction, and being prepared with proper tools—even when resources are limited, like in Latin America. Techniques such as using knee scorpion devices, inside-out repairs, and all-inside devices are highlighted. Complex cases may require second-look surgeries to ensure healing. Clinical data show about a 90% success rate for meniscus repair alongside ACL reconstruction. The speaker advocates for repair over meniscectomy and invites attendees to an upcoming Congress in Boston.
