Transtibial Centralization Better Restores Meniscal Extrusion and Contact Mechanics Compared With Knotless Anchor Centralization for Medial Meniscal Posterior Root Tears: An In Vitro Biomechanical Study Using a Porcine Model
When there are concerns of MME after a MMPRT repair, the addition of a TTC suture may provide better biomechanical properties than an isolated repair or a repair combined with centralization using 2 knotless anchors.
