Brief summary

The most common technique involves a suture meniscus avivement with a rasp or a motorized cutter the suture zone before actual implementation of the suture. But the imperative nature of this avivement is based only on theoretical considerations. The team has an old experience in conducting meniscus sutures without avivement. It therefore seems interesting to compare results with those of literature
