Meniscus الإصلاح
Wherever a tear has the biology to heal, the meniscus is stitched back together rather than removed — because preserving it is the single best protection against later arthritis.

1:14Recovery After Meniscus Repair
Why repair rehabilitation is more protected than after a meniscectomy, week by week.

Tear Assessment
The tear pattern, location and blood supply are evaluated arthroscopically.
Preparation
Tear edges are freshened and the surrounding tissue stimulated to heal.
Suture Placement
All-inside, inside-out or outside-in sutures are placed across the tear.
Reduction & Tension
The meniscus is reduced anatomically and the sutures tensioned.
Stability Check
The repair is probed and the knee moved through full range.

الأسبوع ١–٢Protected weight bearing · Swelling control · Motion within limits
الأسبوع ٣–٦Progressive weight bearing · Flexion increased gradually · No deep squats
الأسبوع ٦–١٢Full motion · Strength work · Cycling and swimming

Not every tear can be repaired: healing depends on blood supply, tear pattern, tissue quality and your age and activity. When repair is possible, it is almost always worth the more protected recovery.
- A meniscus tear in the vascular, well-supplied zone
- Younger or active patients with good tissue quality
- Tears occurring together with an ACL injury
- Locking or a displaced tear needing reduction
- MRI reviewThe tear pattern decides repair versus trimming — we discuss both
- Understand the rehabRepair means a slower, protected recovery; plan for it
- Crutches and braceArrange these before the day of surgery
- تجهيز المنزلIce, elevation and a plan for the first week
Every millimetre of meniscus you keep is protection you will still feel in twenty years. I repair whenever the biology allows it, and I would rather ask a patient for six patient months than take tissue we can never give back.
