The preoperative flexion tear gap affects postoperative meniscus stability after pullout repair for medial meniscus posterior root tear
FTG evaluated with open MRI at 90° knee flexion was associated with time from injury and affected meniscus stability following pullout repair. MMPR tears should be treated in the early phase to increase meniscus healing stability.
