Meniscal repair: Preferred for young patients or those with tears in the vascular (red-red) zone, which has healing potential. Arthroscopic sutures are used to repair the torn meniscus. Partial meniscectomy : [ 7 ] If the tear is in a non-repairable location (white-white zone) or the meniscal tissue is extensively damaged, the displaced ...
In major injuries, the repair mechanisms are unable to restore the skin to its original condition. The repaired region contains an abnormally large number of collagenous fibers, and relatively few blood vessels. Damaged sweat and sebaceous glands, hair follicles, muscle cells, and nerves are seldom repaired.

Ulnar collateral ligament reconstruction, colloquially known as Tommy John surgery, is a surgical graft procedure where the ulnar collateral ligament in the medial elbow is replaced with either a tendon from elsewhere in the patient's body, or with one from a deceased donor.
The torn ligament can either be removed from the knee (most common), or preserved (where the graft is passed inside the preserved ruptured native ligament) before reconstruction through an arthroscopic procedure. ACL repair is also a surgical option. This involves repairing the ACL by re-attaching it, instead of performing a reconstruction.
Arthroscopic lavage is a "cleaning up" procedure of the knee joint. This short-term solution is not considered as an articular cartilage repair procedure but rather a palliative treatment to reduce pain, mechanical restriction and inflammation. Lavage focuses on removing degenerative articular cartilage flaps and fibrous tissue.
Here is what Shulz said on Morant's injury, recovery process and long-term future. What is a labral tear? CA: The Grizzlies said that a MRI revealed a labral tear.
Surgical treatment of SLAP tears has become more common in recent years. The success rate for repairing isolated SLAP tears is reported between 74-94%. [10] While surgery can be performed as a traditional open procedure, an arthroscopic technique [11] is currently favored being less intrusive with low chance of iatrogenic infection. [12]
