The role of MRI in evaluation of arthroscopic transtibial pullout repair for medial meniscus posterior root tears

This article aims to illustrate both normal and abnormal postoperative imaging findings of the MMPRT repair performed with ATPR, with emphasis on MRI. The radiologist must highlight the tunnel position, the reduction of the medial meniscus posterior root to its anatomical attachment, the signs of root healing (continuity and lower signal intensity), and eventual meniscal extrusion or signs of osteoarthritis.
