A novel meniscal root refixation pull‐in technique with an all‐suture anchor shows biomechanical properties comparable to standard suture anchor and transtibial pull‐out techniques... by Thorben Briese, Amaris Kieninger, Christian Peez, Adrian Deichsel, Elmar Herbst, Maurice Balke, Michael J. Raschke, Christoph Kittl

“…Abstract Purpose Repair techniques for posterior meniscal root (PMMR) tears include repair with transtibial pull‐out and anchors. An alternative approach uses all‐suture anchors pulled in, avoiding a posterior medial portal. …”
