Meniscal Transplantation

Abstract

In meniscal tears, Menisectomy was usually performed in the past. Currently, the gold standard of care for meniscal disorder emphasizes that a meniscal tear should be repaired when possible, with certain tears being allowed to heal, particularly in younger individuals. However, partial and total menisectomies are still necessary when repair or nonoperative treatment is not possible. As degeneratif arthritis was realised to progress rapidly in menisectomised knee; the ways of replacing menisci were investigated. Currently, meniscal allograft transplantation is used for this purpose. In this paper, the properties of menisci, natural history of menisectomi and current status of meniscal allograft transplantation were reviewed.
