Exposure of the medial meniscus for examination and treatment is never easy. Many instruments have been developed for the purpose. The original technique required a Hohman to advance the tibia. Standard Hohmans are not designed for the purpose and can cause trauma to both tibia and trochlea. The original stifle lever addresses these issues but is a little bulky for arthroscopic use. The arthroscopic version is finer, longer, and has a substantial Teflon handle allowing better manipulation of the joint.
