AB  - This clinical study reviews 246 meniscal surgeries performed at Ankara University Orthopedics Clinic between 1961 and May 1964. A total of 232 patients underwent meniscus excision. Surgical technique involved meticulous removal under general anesthesia with post-op immobilization and structured rehabilitation including physical therapy, massage, and hydrotherapy. Patients were predominantly male (87%), from various professions, with most lesions caused by trauma such as football, traffic accidents, and work injuries. Clinical signs included locking, varus-valgus pain, Bragard’s sign, and rotational pain. Histological examination revealed degenerative and traumatic changes, with emphasis on total meniscus excision as the preferred treatment. The study discusses diagnostic challenges, histological timing, and the role of auxiliary diagnostic methods like arthroscopy and imaging.
