Meniscus repair surgery

What is Meniscus Repair Surgery?

Meniscus repair surgery is a specialized orthopedic procedure aimed at treating meniscus tears in the knee joint. The meniscus is a crucial cartilage structure that acts as a cushion between the thigh bone (femur) and shin bone (tibia). When torn due to injury, sports activities, or wear and tear, it can cause pain, swelling, and limited knee mobility.

At Numed Hospital, we offer advanced and minimally invasive meniscus repair techniques to restore knee function, reduce pain, and promote long-term joint health.

When is Meniscus Repair Needed?

Meniscus repair surgery is recommended in cases where:

• A tear causes persistent pain and swelling.
• The knee locks or catches frequently.
• Conservative treatments like physiotherapy and medications do not provide relief.
• The tear is in a location with good blood supply, allowing it to heal effectively.

Types of Meniscus Repair Procedures

At Numed Hospital, our orthopedic experts assess the severity and location of the tear before recommending the most suitable procedure. The main techniques include:

1. Arthroscopic Meniscus Repair

A minimally invasive approach using a small camera (arthroscope) and specialized instruments to stitch the torn meniscus back together.

2. Partial Meniscectomy

If repair is not possible, the damaged portion of the meniscus is trimmed to prevent further complications while preserving as much healthy cartilage as possible.

3. Meniscus Transplantation

For severe cases, where the meniscus is beyond repair, a donor meniscus transplant is performed to restore knee function.
