| The time between injury and operative treatment was longer than in the meniscectomy group. |
|
| Meniscal injuries were treated arthroscopically by rasping, suturing, or partial meniscectomy, according to the size and location of the lesion. |
|
| The goal of medial meniscal transplantation is to prevent degenerative changes that can result from meniscectomy. |
|
| A partial medial meniscectomy was performed by using a basket forceps and shaver. |
|
| When I was in college, I injured the lateral meniscus in my right knee and had a meniscectomy. |
|
| In the case of a meniscectomy, even a partial one, the risk of osteoarthritis increases. |
|
| I started running again after the second meniscectomy, but the muscles had severely weakened. |
|
| I had another meniscectomy in the same meniscus last March because it had worn out and was hurting. |
|
| Considering that you have had a meniscectomy before, it is important for you to strengthen the muscles that support the knee. |
|
| Our findings strongly support the reports that suggest that subchondral bone scleroses and cartilage degeneration often occur after meniscectomy. |
|
| Purpose: To compare long-term performance of meniscal allografts transplanted immediately after meniscectomy and allografts transplanted 6 weeks after meniscectomy. |
|
| Non-preserving therapies include partial or total meniscectomy. |
|
| However, a meniscectomy significantly increases the risk of arthritis or total knee replacement later in life. |
|
| These patients subsequently underwent arthroscopic partial meniscectomy. |
|
| At the moment surgeons often perform a meniscectomy to trim or remove the torn cartilage, which reduces pain, but increases the long term risk of osteoarthritis. |
|
| Katz performed a secondary analysis of the randomized, controlled MeTeOR trial, which compared PT with arthroscopic partial meniscectomy among 351 patients. |
