About this listen

 Medial meniscal repair performed at the time of primary anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) has been shown to be significantly associated with subsequent surgery, and subsequent surgery has been associated with increased Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) pain score and decreased patient satisfaction. In conclusion, successful medial meniscal repair performed at the time of primary ACLR decreased clinically significant knee pain 10 years postoperatively. However, the mediating effect of subsequent surgery was significant and diminished the overall contribution of medial meniscal repair in decreasing the likelihood of KOOS pain. Continued efforts should be made to decrease the likelihood of subsequent surgery after medial meniscal repair performed at the time of primary ACLR. Click here to read the article.
