Abstract:
Meniscal tears are common injuries that may result in functionally limiting pain, swelling, and mechanical symptoms. The management of meniscal pathology has evolved as surgeons' understanding of the important role the menisci play in normal knee kinematics increases. Recent emphasis on partial meniscectomy, expanding indications for meniscal repair, and the increased use of meniscal allograft transplantation have helped improve the outcomes of patients with a meniscal tear who undergo treatment. Orthopaedic surgeons should understand meniscal function, pathology, and treatment approaches.
