Abstract
|
|
|
|
Either absorbable or nonabsorbable sutures can be used in meniscal repair. Some surgeons prefer nonabsorbable sutures because they believe that nonabsorbable sutures improve meniscal healing as compared with absorbable sutures. But, permanent existence of sutures in the lesion could make problems. We report a case of Inside-Out meniscus repair that nonabsorbable sutures came out of the joint capsule tearing the substance of the meniscus.
