Although historically overlooked, medial meniscus posterior root (MMPR) tears are now increasingly recognized as a substantial cause of biomechanical impairment and morbidity. MMPR tears, when left untreated, strongly correlated to meniscal extrusion ultimately lead altered kinematics loading functionally equivalent total meniscectomy. To prevent progressive joint degeneration alleviate pain while re-establishing native kinematics, repair is generally recommended in appropriately selected...
