Unfortunately patients treated by this method developed early arthritis and, hence, nowadays, the meniscus is no longer completely excised.<\/p>\n<p>The most common form of treatment of meniscal injuries is removal only of the torn fragment, performed via keyhole surgery (a procedure known as arthroscopy). The instruments used are very fine, finer than a pencil, and are introduced into the joint through very small cuts made in the skin. It is usually carried out as a day case; the patient being allowed home on the day of surgery. This is an extremely safe operation, the chances of significant complication following this surgery being less than 1%.<\/p>\n<p>In a small number of cases, it may be possible to repair the torn cartilage. This is preferable in children and young adults but should be undertaken only by experienced knee surgeons. I have researched and found that repair of the meniscus in young adults, where possible, is very highly successful and should be attempted.<\/p>\n<\/div><style type=\"text\/css\"><\/style><div class=\"fusion-title title fusion-title-6 fusion-sep-none fusion-title-text fusion-title-size-two\" style=\"margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;\"><h2 class=\"title-heading-left\" style=\"margin:0;color:#0075c4;\"><\/h2><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-clearfix\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-fullwidth fullwidth-box fusion-builder-row-6 nonhundred-percent-fullwidth non-hundred-percent-height-scrolling\"  style='background-color: #282828;background-position: left top;background-repeat: no-repeat;padding-top:100px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:90px;padding-left:0px;'><div class=\"fusion-builder-row fusion-row \"><div  class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion_builder_column_1_1 fusion-builder-column-10 fusion-one-full fusion-column-first fusion-column-last fusion-column-no-min-height 1_1\"  style='margin-top:2%;margin-bottom:0px;'><div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper\" style=\"padding: 0px 0px 0px 0px;background-position:left top;background-repeat:no-repeat;-webkit-background-size:cover;-moz-background-size:cover;-o-background-size:cover;background-size:cover;\"   data-bg-url=\"\"><style type=\"text\/css\"><\/style><div class=\"fusion-title title fusion-title-7 fusion-sep-none fusion-title-center fusion-title-text fusion-title-size-three\" style=\"margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;\"><h3 class=\"title-heading-center\" style=\"margin:0;\">Request an appointment<\/h3><\/div><div role=\"form\" class=\"wpcf7\" id=\"wpcf7-f3145-o1\" lang=\"en-US\" dir=\"ltr\">\n<div class=\"screen-reader-response\" aria-live=\"polite\"><\/div>\n<form action=\"\/kneeclinic\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3241#wpcf7-f3145-o1\" method=\"post\" class=\"wpcf7-form\" novalidate=\"novalidate\">\n<div style=\"display: none;\">\n<input type=\"hidden\" name=\"_wpcf7\" value=\"3145\" \/>\n<input type=\"hidden\" name=\"_wpcf7_version\" value=\"5.1.9\" \/>\n<input type=\"hidden\" name=\"_wpcf7_locale\" value=\"en_US\" \/>\n<input type=\"hidden\" name=\"_wpcf7_unit_tag\" value=\"wpcf7-f3145-o1\" \/>\n<input type=\"hidden\" name=\"_wpcf7_container_post\" value=\"0\" \/>\n<\/div>\n<p><span class=\"wpcf7-form-control-wrap your-name\"><input type=\"text\" name=\"your-name\" value=\"\" size=\"40\" class=\"wpcf7-form-control wpcf7-text wpcf7-validates-as-required\" aria-required=\"true\" aria-invalid=\"false\" placeholder=\"Name\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"wpcf7-form-control-wrap your-email\"><input type=\"email\" name=\"your-email\" value=\"\" size=\"40\" class=\"wpcf7-form-control wpcf7-text wpcf7-email wpcf7-validates-as-required wpcf7-validates-as-email\" aria-required=\"true\" aria-invalid=\"false\" placeholder=\"Email\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"wpcf7-form-control-wrap enquiry\"><textarea name=\"enquiry\" cols=\"40\" rows=\"10\" class=\"wpcf7-form-control wpcf7-textarea wpcf7-validates-as-required\" aria-required=\"true\" aria-invalid=\"false\" placeholder=\"A brief description of your enquiry\"><\/textarea><\/span><\/p>\n<p><input type=\"submit\" value=\"Send\" class=\"wpcf7-form-control wpcf7-submit\" \/> <\/p>\n<div class=\"fusion-alert alert custom alert-custom fusion-alert-center wpcf7-response-output wpcf7-display-none fusion-alert-capitalize alert-dismissable\" style=\"border-width:1px;\"><button type=\"button\" class=\"close toggle-alert\" data-dismiss=\"alert\" aria-hidden=\"true\">&times;<\/button><div class=\"fusion-alert-content-wrapper\"><span class=\"fusion-alert-content\"><\/span><\/div><\/div><\/form><\/div><div class=\"fusion-clearfix\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"100-width.php","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-3241","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v14.2 -
