title: [Arthroscopic meniscopexy].
abstract: The author analyses indications and therapeutic possibilities of arthroscopic meniscopexy and presents his own results assembled at the First Orthopaedic Clinic of the Masaryk University in Brno. He describes the surgical technique used, i.e. OUTSIDE-IN, in treatment of recent paracapsular ruptures of the meniscus, postoperative fixation and the rehabilitation programme. The author discusses also the necessity of a rigid plaster fixation and advocates fixation of the knee joint by a bandage as proposed by R. Jones with elimination of burdening for a period of eight weeks.
