Discoid lateral meniscus and its arthroscopic treatment

Abstract

Objectives: We evaluated the results of arthroscopic meniscectomy in patients with lateral discoid menisci of the knee. Methods: Lateral discoid menisci were documented in 274 patients, of whom 183 patients (110 males, 73 females; mean age 34.8 years; range 6-67 years) were clinically and arthroscopically found to be symptomatic and underwent total, subtotal, or partial meniscectomy. The most common complaints were pain, lurch, feeling of giving way, locking, limited extension, and marked snapping. The average period between injury and operation was 13.2 months (range 3-52 months). The results were evaluated according to the Ikeuchi and Lysholm criteria. Mean follow-up was 52 months (range 12-126 months). Results: According to the Ikeuchi criteria, the results were excellent in 103 patients (56%), good in 49 (27%), fair in 23 (13%), and poor in eight patients (4%). On the other hand, according to the Lysholm criteria, the results were excellent and good in 163 patients (89%), fair in 15 (8%), and poor in five (3%) patients. Conclusion: We concluded that arthroscopic partial meniscectomy should be the preferred method in the surgical treatment for lateral discoid menisci, due to its minimal traumatic effects, early mobilization, a lower complication rate, and easy and short rehabilitation.
