High body mass index is a risk factor for unfavorable clinical outcomes after medial meniscus posterior root repair in well-aligned knees
Abstract
Severe chondral lesions and varus knee alignment are associated with poor outcomes following transtibial pullout repair for medial meniscus posterior root tears and meniscus tear is strongly associated with body mass index. The prognostic factors in well-aligned knees (femorotibial angle < 180°) with mild chondral lesions are unknown. Therefore, we investigated the prognostic factors in these patients. We hypothesized that high body mass index...
