Repair of medial meniscus posterior root tear is effective for root healing and cartilage regeneration in opening wedge high tibial osteotomy

ConclusionsMMPRT repair during OWHTO might improve MMPRT healing, even with under-correction, and cartilage regeneration of MFC, regardless of microfracture. However, OWHTO with MMPRT repair might not improve short-term clinical outcomes compared to OWHTO alone. Further randomized clinical trials are necessary.Level of evidenceIII, Retrospective cohort study.
