Meniscus Ramp Lesion

The ramp lesion is a disruption of the meniscotibial ligament and the posteromedial meniscus in the meniscocapsular zone. The lesion is commonly associated with ACL injuries and is often misdiagnosed.¹  A disruption of the posterior horn of the medial meniscus could lead to excessive forces within the knee joint and surrounding structures.

The QuickPass™ SutureLasso™ suture passer is preloaded with a #2-0 FiberStick™ suture, and is offered with either a left or right 25° curve and a 1.5 millimeter tip.
