Point-to-Point Meniscal Root Marking Hook

Meniscal Root Repair With PEEK SwiveLock® Anchor Surgical Technique Meniscal Root Repair Introduction Meniscal root avulsions are a challenging injury causing meniscal extrusion and loss of hoop stress distribution, which can lead to the development of knee arthritis.1 Securing the meniscus in a small bone socket has proven to be an effective means to restore hoop stresses and improve outcomes.2 The FlipCutter® II reamer and meniscal root marking hook allow for a minimally invasive retroconstruction repair technique that helps preserve bone while securely fixing meniscal tissue. Meniscal Root Repair With PEEK SwiveLock® Anchor A complete system for meniscal root repair includes the meniscal root marking hooks, which have multiple settings to accommodate various anatomies, the Knee Scorpion™ suture passer, and meniscal root repair kit with PEEK SwiveLock anchor. Arthrex offers two meniscus root marking hooks based on surgeon preference. The over-the-back marking hook sits securely over the back of the tibia to allow stable drilling using a 6 mm FlipCutter® II reamer for socket preparation. The point-to-point guide allows surgeons to directly target their drill location at the meniscal root footprint. The low-profile Knee Scorpion instrument simplifies suture passing in tight recesses of the knee. Complete knotless fixation of the sutures with the 4.75 mm PEEK SwiveLock anchor. Knee Scorpion Suture Passer (AR-12990) PEEK SwiveLock Anchor (AR-2324PSLC) Meniscal Root Marking Hook (AR-1610MR) Meniscal Root Locking Guide (AR-1610LG) 02 I Meniscal Root Repair With PEEK SwiveLock® Anchor Point-to-Point Meniscal Root Marking Hook (AR-1610H) Arthroscopic Evaluation and Preparation Probing of the meniscal root should confirm detachment from the tibial plateau. On the tibial plateau, identify the location of meniscus reattachment. This should be as anatomical as possible without excessive stress or deformation of the tissue when pulled to that area. A ChondraDrill™ attachment, ApolloRF® MP90 probe (a), or burr can be used to mark this location for later reference. If visualization or using instrumentation is difficult because of tight joint space, it may be helpful to partially flatten the tibial spine with a PoweRasp™ shaver and/ or perform a small posterior notchplasty with an arthroscopic burr. (a) Tibial Socket Creation Option A: Meniscal Root Locking Guide 1 Engage the lock to prevent rotation of the marking hook while introducing the guide into the joint through a PassPort Button™ cannula. 2 Position the marking hook over the back of the tibia at the desired location for tissue reattachment. Meniscal Root Repair With PEEK SwiveLock® Anchor I 03 3 Adjust the offset by depressing the button on the locking guide and aligning the laser marks with the desired offset. 4 Use a 6 mm FlipCutter® II reamer to create a bone socket. Drill on a forward setting and pull back until the socket has reached a depth of approximately 5 mm to 10 mm. Tibial Socket Creation Option B: Point-to-Point Guide 1 Position the distal tip of the point-to-point guide at the desired exit location at the meniscal root footprint. 04 I Meniscal Root Repair With PEEK SwiveLock® Anchor 2 Once the drill guide has been positioned at the desired location on the tibial plateau, the angle of approach can be adjusted by pulling back on the nob and swiveling the guide to the appropriate angle. The guide can be set at 10°, 20°, 30°, or 40° off center. 3 Use a 6 mm FlipCutter® II reamer to create a bone socket. Drill on a forward setting and pull back until the socket has reached a depth of approximately 5 mm to 10 mm. Suture Passing 4 The Knee Scorpion™ suture passer can be used to pass a size 0 FiberLink™ and TigerLink™ suture to create two cinch stitches. 5 Use the SutureLasso™ needle and passing wire to shuttle the suture to the anterior tibia. Meniscal Root Repair With PEEK SwiveLock® Anchor I 05 6 Extend the tibial incision 1 cm distal from the transtibial bone preparation. 7 Use the spade-tip drill bit to prepare a socket for the anchor. The socket should be prepared to the depth of the positive stop collar on the spade-tip drill. This represents a 20 mm depth. Suture Fixation Pass the suture through the eyelet of the 4.75 mm PEEK SwiveLock® anchor. Tension the suture and place the anchor into the drill hole until the eyelet is fully seated. Maintain tension on the suture and advance the SwiveLock anchor into the tibia. 8 06 I Meniscal Root Repair With PEEK SwiveLock® Anchor 9 Remove the driver first and then the eyelet retention suture. Final fixation.

Meniscal Root Repair With PEEK SwiveLock® Anchor

Double Bone Plug Meniscus Allograft Transplantation Surgical Technique Double Bone Plug Technique The double bone plug technique for meniscal allograft transplant (MAT) provides a method for implanting the meniscal allograft with rigid fixation at the horn attachments. It has been demonstrated that bony fixation at the attachment site allows for the maintenance of functional hoop stress by the meniscal allograft.1 Graft Preparation Allow 25 minutes to thaw the graft. Proper handling instructions are included with the graft. RetroConstruction™ Drill Guide System Instrument Set (AR-1510S) Graft Preparation | Option 1: Coring Reamer Technique 1 Drill a 2.4 mm guide pin through the attachments of the allograft at angles that approximate the tunnel to be drilled in the tibia. The pin hole should be extended through the middle of the bone bridge. Note: Use a collared pin and coring reamer of corresponding size. 02 I Double Bone Plug Meniscus Allograft Transplantation 2 Insert a collared pin into the bottom of the bone bridge so a coring reamer can be used to cut a dowel. Graft Preparation | Option 2: Freehand Technique 1 Using a 1 mm microsagittal saw, make four box cuts around each of the meniscal horns. Start with the posterior cut, then the anterior cut. Create the medial and lateral cuts. Make these cuts in the same trajectory as the retrograde drilled socket that will be prepared later. Move to the medial side and retract the meniscus to protect the attachment in preparation for the next cut. Make the sagittal cuts about 10 mm medial to the lateral wall of the graft. 2 Use a freehand technique to tubularize the bone plugs using a rongeur and/or a bone cutter tool. Prepare the plugs to have a 7 mm to 8 mm posterior diameter (8 mm long) and a 9 mm anterior diameter (10 mm long). To release the bone plug from the donor, cut the meniscus bone block to a depth of 10 mm. Double Bone Plug Meniscus Allograft Transplantation I 03 Suture Passing 1 Pass #2 FiberLoop® suture through the posterior plug. Place a modified Kessler or horizontal mattress suture incorporating meniscal tissue through the posterior attachment. Pull the suture back down through the posterior plug. Prepare the anterior plug similarly with #2 FiberWire® suture. 2 Place two vertical #2 FiberWire sutures in the meniscus. The first is the posterior horn vertical suture 5 mm from posterior bone plug. The second is the midbody vertical suture 15 mm from the posterior horn suture toward the body of the meniscus. These provide two permanent sutures that will be tied over the capsule posteriorly upon implantation of the construct. Note: Complete these two steps for either technique. Mark the anterior of the graft with an “A.” Not only will this denote the anterior portion, it will show where the last (most anterior) stitch should be placed on the graft. Mark the posterior of the graft with a “P.” 04 I Double Bone Plug Meniscus Allograft Transplantation Note: It can be beneficial to colorize the posterior rim so when the graft is passed, the color acts as a visual indicator to show that the graft has not rotated or twisted across the joint. Posterior Tunnel Preparation Anatomic position: Drill the posterior horn socket in a retrograde manner through the anterior-most portion of the residual nub of the meniscus attachment point. It should be appropriately and anatomically juxtaposed to the PCL. This socket should be just off the shoulder of the cartilaginous portion of the plateau and just behind the eminence medially. 1 Position the RetroConstruction™ guide with the meniscal root marking hook on the middle of the posterior remnant attachment at an angle that is as perpendicular to the tibial plateau as possible. Choose a FlipCutter® drill size 1 mm larger than the diameter of the posterior plug on the donor meniscus. Drill the FlipCutter reamer into the middle of the posterior remnant. Remove the guide and tap the cannula into bone. Flip the FlipCutter II drill into its cutting position and drill backward to a depth of 10 mm. Use the rubber grommet on the FlipCutter II drill to measure the 10 mm distance. After drilling the posterior tunnel, use a curved rasp or shaver to remove any extraneous pieces of tissue from around the tunnel’s superior rim. Any piece of soft tissue or cartilage will present difficulties in reducing the posterior plug. FlipCutter II Drill (AR-1204AF-90) Double Bone Plug Meniscus Allograft Transplantation I 05 3 2 Pass a FiberStick™ suture through the FlipCutter® drill sleeve and retrieve the passing sutures through the medial portal. For graft passage and fixation, follow a standard inside-out suturing technique with a 4 cm incision made on the posteromedial aspect of the knee. Dissect down to the medial head of the gastrocnemius. Follow the tissue plane anterior to the gastrocnemius and bluntly dissect further to the posteromedial capsule. Passing the Allograft With direct visualization and the inside-out technique, pass a Micro SutureLasso™ suture passer (a) through the notch in the dilated portion that was created for the passage of the posterior horn. Use the suture passer to move the passing suture out of the posterior capsule. Then use the passing suture to deliver the posterior horn vertical suture (b) that was placed on the meniscal transplant construct. With the knee in valgus position, use the same technique to place a second passing suture at the midbody of the capsule. This passing suture will be used to deliver the midbody vertical suture that was placed on the meniscal transplant construct (c). Note: A PassPort Button™ cannula can aid in suture management and avoid a soft-tissue bridge between passing sutures. The cannula should be used in at least one anterior portal that is ipsilateral to the transplant. This is critical so the graft does not twist on itself during implantation. Be sure to remove the cannula before passing the allograft while maintaining suture segregation. (c) (b) (a) 06 I Double Bone Plug Meniscus Allograft Transplantation 1 Pass the three posterior passing sutures on the allograft in the following order: 1. Pass the suture on the posterior bone plug with the previously place posterior shuttle suture through the posterior socket and down the tunnel. Note: Do not pass the meniscus at this time. 2. Pass the posterior horn passing sutures. 3. Pass the midbody passing sutures. Prepare for graft insertion by applying valgus stress on the knee. Begin inserting the allograft by leading with the posterior horn. Continue to take up any slack in the other sutures as the allograft is inserted. Use a probe to help guide the posterior bone plug into place. Use a meniscal probe or blunt instrument to maneuver the posterior plug into position while applying gentle traction on the posterior suture. Visualize to ensure that the plug and the meniscus have reduced properly. Pass the posterior horn suture through the capsule and midbody sutures and tie. Double Bone Plug Meniscus Allograft Transplantation I 07 Securing the Anterior Plug 2 Use the 2.4 mm drill sleeve to help protect the patella and soft tis sues to deliver a 2.4 mm pin in the correct anatomic position of the anterior meniscus attachment. Use a low-profile reamer to drill a 10 mm-deep socket. Ensure the anterior horn sutures are safely out of the way before drilling. Using the multiuse marking hook, position the RetroConstruction™ guide into the anterior tunnel. Tap the stepped 3.5 mm drill sleeve of the FlipCutter® reamer cannula onto the tibia to create an orthogonal angle to the anterior bone plug socket. Drill the FlipCutter reamer to the socket, taking care not to flip the FlipCutter reamer. Pass a FiberStick™ suture through the drilled tunnel and retrieve through the medial portal. Pass the anterior bone plug sutures through the tunnel, and using a probe, maneuver the anterior plug into the socket. Pass the anterior bone plug sutures through the eyelet of a 4.75 mm SwiveLock® anchor. Tension the sutures to achieve full reduction of the bone plug into the socket and place the anchor into the tibia to complete anterior bone plug fixation. Alternatively, use a suture button to complete fixation. 3 08 I Double Bone Plug Meniscus Allograft Transplantation 3a Alternate fixation method: Use a SwiveLock® anchor to press fit the bone plug in the socket. The leading edge of the SwiveLock anchor reduces the bone plug. Place the trailing aspect of the SwiveLock anchor on the notch side of the bone plug; this acts as an interference screw to lock the anterior bone plug and meniscus in place. 4 The anterior sutures of the meniscocapsular interface may be placed under direct visualization. Size 2-0 absorbable suture is frequently used for this application. The arthrotomy should be closed so the remaining sutures can be placed using the ZoneNavigator™ system (a) with 2.0 SutureTape meniscus repair needles. Routinely, 6 to 8 sutures are used to secure the peripheral interface. Note: Vertical sutures provide additional strength.

Double Bone Plug Meniscus Reconstruction

Meniscal Root Avulsion Repair Surgical Technique Introduction Meniscal root avulsions are challenging injuries causing meniscal extrusion and loss of hoop stress distribution, which can lead to the development of knee arthritis.1 Securing the meniscus in a small bone socket has proven to be an effective means to restore hoop stresses and improve outcomes.2 The FlipCutter® II reamer and meniscal root marking hook allow for a minimally invasive retroconstruction repair technique that preserves bone while securing meniscal tissue. With 2 points of stability for drilling and preparing the bone socket, the meniscal root marking hook can be adjusted to an offset of 5 mm, 7.5 mm, or 10 mm from the posterior tibia. Additionally, the drill sleeve can be rotated to the optimal tunnel location without disengaging the marking hook. Create a socket for tissue reduction using the FlipCutter II reamer. The FlipCutter II reamer and Knee Scorpion™ suture passer are ideal for meniscal root repair and transplantation. In a single step, pass 0 or 2-0 FiberWire® suture using the versatile Knee Scorpion suture passer. Its low-profile jaw allows access to tight spaces in the knee, making it ideal for various stitch configurations. Arthroscopic Evaluation and Preparation: Confirm detachment from the tibial plateau while probing the meniscal root. Identify the location on the tibial plateau where reattachment of the meniscus is desired. This should be as anatomical as possible without excessive stress or deformation of the tissue when pulled to that area. A ChondroDrill™ attachment, Apollo RF® MP90 probe, or burr can be used to mark this location for later reference. If visualization or instrumentation is difficult because of a tight joint space, it may be helpful to partially flatten the tibial spine with a PoweRasp™ shaver and/or perform a small posterior notchplasty with an arthroscopic burr. Tibial Socket Creation 1 Engage the lock to prevent rotation of the marking hook while introducing the guide into the joint through a PassPort Button™ cannula. 2 Position the marking hook over the back of the tibia at the desired location for tissue reattachment. 3 Adjust the offset by depressing the button on the locking guide and aligning the laser marks with the desired offset. 4 Use a 6 mm FlipCutter® reamer to create a bone socket. Drill on a forward setting and pull back until the socket has reached a depth of approximately 5 mm. Suture Passing 1 The Knee Scorpion™ suture passer can be used to pass a size 0 TigerLink™ suture to create a cinch stitch. The size 0 FiberLink™ suture can be passed to create a second cinch stitch. Meniscal Root Avulsion Repair I 03 2 Use the SutureLasso™ needle and passing wire to shuttle the suture to the anterior tibia. 3 Extend the tibial incision 1 cm distal from the transtibial bone preparation. 4 Use the spade-tip drill bit to prepare a socket for the anchor. The socket should be prepared to the depth of the positive stop collar on the spade-tip drill, representing a 20 mm depth. For hard bone, the 4.75 mm SwiveLock® anchor tap should be used. 04 I Meniscal Root Avulsion Repair 5 Pass the suture(s) through the eyelet of the 4.75 mm BioComposite SwiveLock® anchor. Tension the suture(s) to achieve an anatomic reduction of the meniscal root and place the anchor into the drill hole until the eyelet is fully seated. Maintain tension on the suture(s) and advance the SwiveLock anchor into the tibia. 6 Final Construct: After removing the driver, the eyelet retention suture can be removed.
