Pearls and Pitfalls of Meniscal Scaffold Implantation

Pearls	Pitfalls
To control the scaffold position, the rein suture should be set at the center of the scaffold before intra-articular translation.	Inside-out suture fixation makes it difficult to fix appropriate position because it tends to push the scaffold to the peripheral side.
Scaffold should be fixed at the posterior horn first because it is less flexible and easy to make the gap during knee motion.	Suture fixation should be having the posterior and the middle meniscus in turn.
The size of one portal is needed over 1cm, and soft tissue should be removed around the portal by shaver because the implanted scaffold is brought intraarticular smoothly. Using cannula might be another solution.
