The meniscus plays an important role in the knee`s biomechanics to transmit loads, and protect the articular cartilage. With the advent of arthroscopy, arthroscopic meniscal repair has been the most popular surgical procedure for the patients with the meniscal tear. Insideout meniscal repair technique is the most common used method and accepted as the `gold standard` arthroscopic technique for meniscal tears. But in recent years, advances in instrument and implant technology have allowed the development of all-inside repair techniques. These techniques have some advantages such as: not necessitating additional incisions, decreasing risk to posterior neurovascular elements, and reducing surgical period. The purpose of this review is to evaluate the allinside meniscal repair technique with its outcomes and complications.
