What is Meniscus Repair?

Meniscus tear repair is a surgical procedure aimed at treating tears or damage to the meniscus, a cartilage structure in the knee joint responsible for cushioning and stability. This surgery is typically performed to restore knee function and prevent further complications after injuries caused by sports, trauma, or age-related degeneration. It addresses torn cartilage, instability, and knee pain while minimizing postoperative complications and facilitating rehabilitation.

Meniscus Repair Techniques:

  • Traditional Open Surgery: Involves a larger incision to access and repair the torn meniscus, usually reserved for complex cases.
  • Arthroscopic Meniscus Repair: Minimally invasive technique using small incisions and a camera to guide the repair, resulting in shorter recovery times and reduced postoperative discomfort.
  • Partial Meniscectomy: In some cases, the damaged portion of the meniscus is removed to restore knee function while preserving as much healthy tissue as possible.
  • Meniscus Transplantation: If the meniscus is too severely damaged, a donor meniscus can be transplanted to restore knee stability and function.

Arthroscopic Meniscus Repair: Pre-Op & Post-Op Care

Preparation: Before meniscus surgery, patients are evaluated through medical history, physical examination, and MRI scans to assess the extent of the meniscus tear and aid in surgical planning.

During the surgery: Torn Meniscus surgery involves repairing or removing the damaged cartilage using minimally invasive arthroscopic techniques. The surgeon accesses the knee joint through small incisions, repairs the tear using sutures or anchors, or removes damaged tissue, then closes the incisions.

Duration: The duration of meniscus surgery ranges from 30 minutes to an hour, depending on injury complexity and surgical technique.

Recovery: After meniscus surgery, patients are closely monitored in the recovery area until they regain consciousness and their vital signs stabilize. They are then provided with instructions on post-operative care, including pain management, wound care, and rehabilitation exercises.

Post-Procedure Care: Follow-up appointments monitor healing, assess range of motion, and check for complications like infection or blood clots. Physical therapy aids in regaining strength, stability, and function in the knee joint. Weight-bearing and activity restrictions are gradually eased based on patient progress.

FAQ's

Meniscus surgery recovery time varies depending on the severity of the tear and individual factors, but it generally ranges from 4 to 6 weeks for basic mobility. After full arthroscopic meniscus repair, recovery and return to high-impact activities might take 3 to 6 months. Following a physical therapy regimen can expedite recovery and ensure proper healing.

Pain levels after arthroscopic meniscus tear treatment can vary, with most patients experiencing moderate discomfort. Pain is typically managed with prescribed painkillers and gradually diminishes over the first week or two. Many patients report that pain is manageable and improves significantly with proper rest, ice, and medication.

Typically, patients can bear some weight and walk with crutches or a walker shortly after meniscus surgery. However, full weight-bearing may require a gradual approach, and your surgeon or physical therapist will guide you through this. Following medical advice and using assistive devices helps prevent strain on the knee.

Meniscus surgery is generally considered a minor or minimally invasive surgery. Arthroscopic techniques use small incisions and specialized tools, reducing recovery time and complications compared to open surgery. Though it’s less invasive, it still requires careful attention to post-operative care and rehabilitation.

Bed rest after meniscus surgery is typically minimal. While it’s important to rest and elevate the leg in the first few days to reduce swelling, patients are encouraged to start gentle movements and physical therapy soon after. Prolonged bed rest is not recommended, as it can lead to stiffness and delayed recovery.

It is generally better to repair the meniscus when feasible, as this maintains knee function and reduces the risk of arthritis and other long-term complications. However, the best approach depends on the type and location of the tear. If the tear cannot be repaired, partial removal (meniscectomy) may be necessary to alleviate pain and restore knee function. Your surgeon will decide based on your specific condition and overall health.
