Title: Closed and open partial meniscectomy for bucket handle tears: a comparative evaluation. Author: Tregonning RJ. Journal: N Z Med J; 1983 May 25; 96(732):375-7. PubMed ID: 6573603. Abstract: Two groups of patients with bucket-handle tears of the meniscus were treated by open operation (27) and by closed operation (29). Pre-operative arthroscopy was carried out on all. Those treated by closed operation had much shorter recovery time and returned to work earlier that those with open operation. Symptomatic relief was obtained by all.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
