    Area of Science:

    • Orthopedic Surgery
    • Radiology

    Background:

    • Discoid meniscus is a congenital anomaly of the knee.
    • It most commonly affects the lateral meniscus.

    Observation:

    • Arthrography was utilized for preoperative diagnosis in three patients.
    • This imaging technique visualized the discoid menisci.

    Findings:

    • Three cases of discoid meniscus were successfully diagnosed preoperatively.
    • The pathogenesis of discoid meniscus is not well understood.

    Implications:

    • Accurate preoperative diagnosis of discoid meniscus is possible with arthrography.
    • Further research into the etiology of discoid meniscus is warranted.
