Open Meniscal Allograft Transplantation w/Transosseous Suture Fixation of Meniscal Body Decreases Meniscal Extrusion Rate

Purpose: To assess and compare meniscal extrusion rates after lateral “bridge-in-slot” meniscal allograft transplantation (MAT) with arthroscopic versus open insertion.

Conclusions: This study identified similar absolute extrusion and significantly lower postoperative lateral meniscal extrusion rates after open MAT compared with arthroscopic MAT.
