ObjectiveTo explore the application value and operation skills of arthroscopic automatic reverse guide wire passer (hereinafter referred to as wire passer) in the posterior meniscus root reconstruction. Methods Between August 2015 and December 2020, 36 patients with posterior meniscus root tears were admitted. There were 16 males and 20 females, with an average age of 46 years (range, 26-66 years). There were 15 cases of sports injury and 21 cases of degenerative injury. The disease duration was 3-180 days, with a median of 28 days. The posterior root of the medial meniscus was injured in 29 cases, and the posterior root of the lateral meniscus was injured in 7 cases. The preoperative Lysholm score of the knee joint was 47.6±3.9, and the International Knee Score Committee (IKDC) score was 39.3±3.0. The meniscus was sutured by using wire passer under arthroscopy. During operation, the suture operation was evaluated according to the self-defined evaluation standard. Lysholm score and IKDC score were used to evaluate knee joint function. Results All meniscuses were sutured successfully by using wire passer. The operation time of suture was 5-15 minutes, with an average of 10 minutes. According to the self-defined evaluation standard, the suture operation was scored as 0-10, with an average of 5. After operation, except for 2 cases of incision fat liquefaction, the incisions of the other patients healed by first intention. All patients were followed up 1-3 years, with an average of 1.5 years. The Lysholm score was 88.2±2.1 and the IKDC score was 51.7±2.3 at 1 year after operation, showing significant difference when compared with preoperative ones (P<0.001). Fifteen cases underwent MRI re-examination, the results showed that the continuity and integrity of the posterior root had been restored. Conclusion Under arthroscopy, the wire passer for the posterior meniscus root reconstruction has the advantages of simple operation, reliable suture quality, and shorter operation time.
