    The menisci are crucial for knee stability, advocating conservative treatment. Arthroscopic partial meniscectomy offers superior outcomes compared to open surgery, particularly in the early recovery phase.

    Area of Science:

    • Orthopedic surgery
    • Knee biomechanics
    • Meniscal repair

    Background:

    • The menisci are vital for knee joint stability and function.
    • Degenerated menisci can still fulfill their mechanical role.
    • Conservative treatment approaches are often recommended due to the menisci's importance.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the efficacy of different meniscal treatment strategies.
    • To compare arthroscopic partial meniscectomy with conventional open meniscectomy.
    • To highlight the importance of individualized surgical approaches for meniscal lesions.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of clinical results comparing surgical techniques for meniscal lesions.
    • Analysis of outcomes for arthroscopic partial meniscectomy.

  • Analysis of outcomes for conventional open meniscectomy.

    • Main Results:

    • Arthroscopic partial meniscectomy demonstrates superiority over conventional open meniscectomy.
    • This superiority is particularly evident in the early postoperative period.
    • Individualized surgical techniques are applied based on lesion type and associated conditions like arthritis.

    Conclusions:

    • Conservative management is often preferred for meniscal injuries due to their mechanical significance.
    • Arthroscopic partial meniscectomy is an effective treatment for specific meniscal lesions.
    • The choice of surgical intervention should be tailored to the individual patient's condition.
