Figure 2. Arthroscopic photographs of a lateral posterior root tear (right knee). (A) Evidence of a significant root tear due to the non-anatomic, posterior position of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tibial tunnel. (B) Cadaveric image demonstrating the position of the lateral and medial meniscus posterior root attachment (MPRA and LPRA) in relation to the anatomic ACL location (black circle) and current tunnel location (red circle). (C) Repair of the posterior horn of the lateral meniscus using a transtibial pull-out technique. LFC – lateral femoral condyle; LTP – lateral tibial plateau; AG – ACL graft.
