Short-term functional results in arthroscopic partial meniscectomy cases

Abstract

The functional results of 97 cases subjected to arthroscopic partial meniscectomy between December 1990 and March 1997 were evaluated. In the cases of whom 79 were male and 18 were female and whose mean follow-up time was 11.4 months, meniscectomy was performed in 51 right knee joints and 46 left knee joints. The cases were evaluated according to Tegner activity level before injury and after treatment, and according to Lysholm knee score pre and post operation. The mean Tegner activity level before injury was 4.48, and Lysholm knee score before operation was 59.37. The Tegner activity level was 4.12 and Lysholm knee score was 88.32 in the last controls. In the study in which hospitalization duration 3.3 days and the mean off duty time 15.8 days were determined, the decrease in the activity level according to Wilcoxon pairing test and the increase in the knee score according to Student t test were found to be significant statistically.
