Outline of Final Research Achievements |
There is no available treatment for meniscal tear of an avascular zone. To resolve this issue, we devised new technique with the novel adhesive (DST-HAS) and plasma surface treatment, and investigated the effectiveness of this technique. In conclusion, DST-HSA adhesive may be available material to treat a meniscal tear in an avascular zone. Under the condition of this study, on the other hand, plasma surface treatment had no effectiveness to enhance the adhesion strength of DST-HSA. However, we believe that the study of the plasma surface treatment for meniscal repair should be continued because it has a possibility of becoming an available technique to treat the meniscal tear depending on the condition.
