tear

The meniscal roots are essential for their proper functioning. They are the meniscal anchorage point into the tibial plateau maintaining their normal function. Diagnosis of these lesions requires a high degree of suspicion to prevent early development of chondral injuries. Surgical root repair should be attempted, for short-term follow-up has evidenced good outcomes. Meniscal transplantation is reserved for salvage situations when a meniscus cannot be repaired.
