Suture Anchor and Reverse Suture Anchor Show Superior Biomechanical Efficacy to Transtibial Pull‐Out Repair for Posterior Medial Meniscus Root Tears in Porcine Model
The RSA technique retrogradely implants anchors into the tibial bone tunnels to achieve a fixation effect comparable to that of traditional anchors, with shorter sutures in the bone tunnels and a more operable surgical procedure. The RSA technique not only provides satisfactory biomechanical properties for the repair of PMMRTs but also greatly reduces the technical difficulty of surgery. However, repair of PMMRTs still does not restore the strength of the repaired meniscal root to the native meniscus.
