Abstract
UNLABELLED: Several arthroscopic cartilage repair techniques in the knee joint require the insertion of a cut-to-shape matrix. Depending on the location and accessibility of the cartilage lesion, this procedure can be challenging. To overcome the limitations of currently used techniques, a novel matrix insertion technique was developed. This technique utilizes an inserter rod and a dedicated guide which can be used in a dry arthroscopy setup. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Expert opinion, Level V.Entities:
