Abstract

Discoid meniscus is an uncommon abnormality frequently localized in the lateral aspect of the knee. From 1988 to 1992, 17 patients between the ages of 9-51 (average 30.4) had operative arthroscopy for discoid lateral meniscus. There were 11 (65%) male, 6 (35%) female in (his series. We have applied treatment by an arthroscopic saucerization, producing peripheral rims of approximately normal size. The follow-up period ranged 10 to 44 months (average 28.5 months). According to Lysholm criterias the results were excellent and good in 15 (88%), fair in 2 (12%). in this study, we found that arthroscopic partial meniscectomy with saving normal meniscal structure was a satisfactory procedure in the treatment of discoid lateral menisci.

Semptomatik diskoid meniskus olgularına normal boyutlarım yakın periferik halka oluşturacak şekilde artroskopik parsiyel menisektomi uygulanmıştır, İzlem süresi 70-44 ay (ort. 28.5 ay) olup, Lysholm kriterlerine göre yapılan değerlendirmede çok iyi ve iyi sonuç 15 olguda (%88) ve orta sonuç 2 olguda (%12) saptanmıştır.
