Sounds like you know the basic concept of the JK approach. They go under the vastus medialis muscle rather than cutting it to gain access to the knee capsule. I believe they have a proprietary surgical instrument as well. They have a Facebook page where you can read patient personal experiences with it.

I am exploring this as well. I have an appointment at Duke University sports medicine this morning and although there are currently no NC surgeons listed as trained in this method, I will talk to my doc at Duke.
