English

Subject field(s)
  • Orthopedic Surgery
CONT

Surgical Treatment: Medial Meniscectomy Surgery. The torn piece of the medial meniscus is removed, and the remaining surface is smoothed. The residual meniscal cartilage continues to serve as a natural shock absorber for the knee.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Chirurgie orthopédique
CONT

La RMO ne porte que sur les méniscectomies (interne ou externe) arthroscopiques isolées, non associées à d'autres gestes chirurgicaux, sans laxité du genou opéré centrale ou latérale, et en l'absence de signe radiologique d'arthrose.

CONT

La préservation de capital méniscal influence directement les résultats cliniques et radiologiques dès le moyen terme des ligamentoplasties. La méniscectomie latérale est plus péjorative sur le résultat fonctionnel que la méniscectomie médiale. Mais c'est l'absence de ménisque médial qui retentit le plus sur l'évolution radiologique.
