Abstract
Popliteofascicular injury had been proposed as a possible cause of unstable lateral meniscus. Meniscal repair at popliteal hiatus area during lateral meniscal allograft transplantation (MAT) had not been described in literature previously. In this report, a case of unstable lateral meniscus after MAT has been described. Arthroscopic repair for the unstable meniscus at popliteal hiatus resolved the mechanical symptom.
