Advantages and Limitations of Technique

Advantages Limitations
• Meniscus extrusion is reduced by the centralization technique itself regardless of pullout repair. • The technique is technically demanding.
• The sutures for centralization can share the load with those for the pullout repair, so the failure risk of the pullout sutures at the torn edge can be reduced. • The centralization could present a risk to limit normal motion of the MM during knee extension-flexion.
