Arthroscopy and arthrotomy were equally effective for medial meniscal release but arthroscopy was minimally advantageous at preventing iatrogenic damage to the caudal cruciate ligament: a canine cadaveric study
Arthroscopy and arthrotomy were equally effective for performing medial meniscal release by transection of the medial caudal meniscotibial ligament. Arthroscopic evaluation and medial meniscal release without joint translation was minimally advantageous in preventing iatrogenic damage to the CdCL.
