All-Inside Arthroscopic Technique For Repairing Radial Meniscus Tears At The Anterior Horn-Body Junction, Brandon Omari Boyd, Robert M. Walker, Harrison A. Volaski, Ferdinand J. Chan

Department of Medicine Faculty Publications

Radial meniscus tears are a common tear pattern that, if left untreated, can ultimately lead to accelerated degenerative changes and disability. There is well-established evidence that supports meniscal preservation in patients with radial meniscus tears. Various surgical techniques are used to repair radial tears, including inside-out, outside-in, and all-inside methods. Self-retrieving all-inside devices are a safe option when repairing radial tears. However, radial tears at the junction of the anterior horn and body present a unique surgical challenge, as surgeons may have difficulty maneuvering the jaws of the self-retrieving suture device around the anterior limb of the meniscal tear. We …

Computed tomography (CT) and computational modeling (DASI) in redo transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) planning.

Case Summary

A 77-year-old woman presented with severe symptomatic aortic stenosis due to degeneration of a prior transcatheter valve. CT demonstrated leaflet calcification with borderline left-sided valve-to-coronary distance (3.27 mm). Geometric assessment suggested low right coronary obstruction risk, but higher left main risk. Computational modeling demonstrated adequate leaflet-coronary clearance (distance from displaced leaflet cusp to coronary ostium normalized to coronary diameter >0.7). Redo TAVR with a 26-mm Evolut FX was performed without leaflet modification and no coronary obstruction.
