Objectives:
Here we present a rare finding of a discoid medial meniscus.
Methods:
Clinical reports, radiographs, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) results, and intraoperative arthroscopic images highlight this rare clinical entity.
Results:
We have demonstrated successful treatment with arthroscopic partial meniscectomy and saucerization of discoid medial meniscus.
Conclusions:
Discoid medial menisci are a rare cause of medial knee pain and should be considered if classic MRI findings are associated with mechanical symptoms.
