Parameniscal cysts are defined as an internal disorder of the knee joint. It is known that parameniscal cysts are associated with horizontal meniscal tears that could lead to the collection of synovial fluid within the cyst. Despite the treatment of meniscal tears, cyst recurrence is still an issue that needs to be addressed. In this regard, there has been an increasing interest in the use of biologic agents to enhance the vascularity and healing of the meniscus. Preliminary results for biologic therapeutic agents, such as growth factors, bone marrow, and aspirate concentrate, have been encouraging. However, these options are more demanding in regards to time, financial burden, resources, and so on. Autologous platelet-rich plasma is readily available, easy to use, affordable, and minimally invasive. This Technical Note will describe a step-by-step and reproducible technique for the harvesting, preparation, and use of an autologous platelet-rich fibrin matrix used to augment the healing of meniscal repairs.
