Abstract

A 31% incidence of focal posterior knee pain was noted in our initial experience with all-inside meniscal repair using the absorbable Meniscal Arrow system (Bioscience, Tampere, Finland). The pain was transient, resolved by 6 months in all cases, and was unrelated to the length of implant. A typical case is presented to assist surgeons in counseling patients who experience transient posterior knee pain after meniscal repair with this system.
