Abstract

Unstable, displaced, and persistently symptomatic osteochondritis dissecans of the knee typically requires surgical treatment. An arthroscopic, knotless fixation method using interlinked all-suture anchors is presented, with potential advantages over other current techniques in fixation over a broad zone, treatment versatility for a wide range of fragment types, retensioning ability after stressing, decreased risk of implant-breakage complications, and avoidance of additional surgery for implant removal.
