Arthroscopic partial meniscectomy for degenerative meniscal tear.
To the Editor: Previous studies have suggested that partial meniscectomy has little benefit in patients with advanced osteoarthritis1,2 but some benefit in those with mild-to-moderate osteoarthritis.3 Sihvonen and colleagues (Dec. 26 issue)4 attempted to assess the benefit of partial meniscectomy in patients without osteoarthritis. However, although the authors excluded patients with radiograph...
متن کاملSurgery versus physical therapy for meniscal tear and osteoarthritis.
BACKGROUND Whether arthroscopic partial meniscectomy for symptomatic patients with a meniscal tear and knee osteoarthritis results in better functional outcomes than nonoperative therapy is uncertain. METHODS We conducted a multicenter, randomized, controlled trial involving symptomatic patients 45 years of age or older with a meniscal tear and evidence of mild-to-moderate osteoarthritis on i...

متن کاملArthroscopic partial meniscectomy versus sham surgery for a degenerative meniscal tear.
BACKGROUND Arthroscopic partial meniscectomy is one of the most common orthopedic procedures, yet rigorous evidence of its efficacy is lacking. METHODS We conducted a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, sham-controlled trial in 146 patients 35 to 65 years of age who had knee symptoms consistent with a degenerative medial meniscus tear and no knee osteoarthritis. Patients were randomly assi...
متن کاملKnee strength and knee adduction moments following arthroscopic partial meniscectomy.
PURPOSE This study investigated the relationship between muscular strength about the knee and knee joint moments during gait in patients who had undergone arthroscopic partial meniscectomy (APM). METHODS One hundred and two APM patients and 42 age-matched nonoperated controls underwent strength testing and three-dimensional gait analysis. Patients were divided into weak and normal subgroups a...
