  • Title: [What should be done in a meniscal lesion?].
    Author: Dejour H, Neyret P.
    Journal: Rev Prat; 1989 Dec 01; 39(28):2497-502. PubMed ID: 2602876.
    Abstract:
    The treatment of meniscal lesions closely depends on the context in which they occur. In isolated lesions of the medial meniscus, meniscectomy under arthroscopy remains the best method. When the meniscal lesion complicates a rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament, meniscal suture associated with reconstruction of the ligament may be contemplated. In case of degeneration of the medial meniscus or lesion of the lateral meniscus, various therapeutic approaches may be envisaged.
