JuggerStitch for Meniscus Tear Repair

This study is testing the JuggerStitch Meniscal Repair Device, which is used to fix tears in the meniscus (cartilage in your knee). It's a follow-up study to confirm the device's safety and how well it works after it's been approved for use. We are looking for 104 participants who are at least 18 years old and have a meniscus tear that can be repaired. The main goal is to see if patients avoid needing another surgery for their meniscus tear one year after using the JuggerStitch device. The study's current status is unclear.
