Editorial Commentary: Why Should the Contralateral Side Be Examined in Patients With Symptomatic Discoid Lateral

The present study results indicated that older, symptomatic DLM patients with more degenerative changes may be at risk for a similar condition in the contralateral knee. Long-term follow-up with magnetic resonance imaging screening for asymptomatic contralateral knees is necessary to determine the fate of the contralateral knee.
