Arthroscopic posterior portal closure.
Posterior "working" portals in arthroscopic posterior stabilization could result in defects of the posterior capsule if not repaired. We describe a single portal technique used to close the posterior portal defect after arthroscopic stabilization. It is a safe and easy-to-perform technique, which could strengthen the structural integrity of the repair.
