Meniscus surgery is a frequent treatment used to remove or repair a torn meniscus, which is the cartilage in the knee. It involves making a few small incisions and typically takes about an hour. Recovery and Rehabilitation generally take a few weeks. The surgery aims to reduce pain, improve mobility and stability, and help Patients return to normal activities.

Minor meniscus tears can heal on their own if there is adequate blood supply to the area. However, some tears may require arthroscopic surgery for proper repair. Rest is crucial for ligament healing, and using ice packs along with physical therapy can aid in the recovery process.

What is Meniscus?

Each knee has two menisci, which are rubbery, C-shaped cushions that act as shock absorbers in the knee joint. If a meniscus is injured or torn (often referred to as torn cartilage), your healthcare provider may recommend surgery to remove or repair the damaged part.

Classification

It can be performed by the following

Open meniscus
Inside-outside meniscus
Outside-in meniscus
All inside technique

Is surgery required for every meniscus injury?

Not everyone with a torn meniscus requires surgery. The decision depends on several factors, including:

The size, kinds, and location of the tear
Your age
Your activity level and lifestyle
Any related injuries (e.g., ACL tear)
The presence of symptoms (pain, swelling, locking, buckling, etc.)

Healthcare providers may initially recommend nonsurgical treatments, such as:

RICE (rest, ice, compression, and elevation)
NSAIDs (nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs)
Physical therapy
Knee injections, such as cortisone

Meniscus repair is performed to heal a torn meniscus, a cartilage piece in the knee that stabilises the joint. The procedure ensures the restoration of knee function, pain relief, and avoidance of permanent joint deterioration, particularly for younger or otherwise active patients who have repairable tears.

See a doctor if you have knee pain, swelling, locking, clicking, or instability following an injury. A torn meniscus is usually diagnosed with a physical examination and confirmed with MRI imaging.

In preparation for surgery, you may need a physical exam, imaging tests, and possibly the discontinuation of some medications (blood thinners, for example). You will need to have a long period of fasting before surgery, and arrange for someone to drive you home after surgery.

Meniscus repair is typically performed arthroscopically through small incisions and a camera instrument to visualize the joint. The surgeon sews together the torn meniscus edges with sutures or anchors. In a few instances, when the tear is not fixable, partial meniscectomy (cutting out damaged tissue) is performed instead.

The procedure typically lasts 1 to 2 hours. It's most commonly performed on an outpatient basis.

Infection
Bleeding
Nerve damage
Blood clots
Stiffness
Incomplete healing of the meniscus

Meniscus repair conserves the body's natural cartilage, which provides shock absorption and reduces the danger of arthritis. It's generally an improved long-term alternative to removing the meniscus.

Recovery is 3 to 6 months, depending on how much repair is needed. Crutches are usually required for a few weeks, after which physical therapy is used to redevelop strength and mobility. The return to sport is typically at 4–6 months.

Success rates range from 70% to 90%, particularly in young patients with tears of the meniscus's outer (vascular) component. Success depends upon rehabilitation.
