Abstract
Meniscus tears are among the most common knee injuries in the general population and often are treated arthroscopically with a meniscus repair. Of the various meniscus repair techniques available, the inside-out meniscus tear is considered the gold standard due to its versatility and good clinical outcomes. The purpose of this Technical Note and accompanying video is to describe an inside-out bucket-handle meniscus repair using a single handed, self-advancing meniscus repair device with an interchangeable zone-specific multicannula system to decrease the technical difficulty and operative time of the repair.
