abstract: Repair of symptomatic meniscal tears in the appropriate patient has demonstrated successful mid and long-term results with a variety of different repair techniques. These techniques have undergone much evolution and innovation, from the initial open repairs to a variety of inside-out, outside-in, and all-inside techniques and devices. This article focuses on patient presentation, selection, current treatments, and surgical techniques including pearls and pitfalls, and discusses the most recent published outcomes and complications.
