Meniscus Tear Treatment

Types of Meniscus Tear Treatment

Dr. Lalit Modi, Knee Replacement Surgeon in Jaipur, stresses the significance of comprehending the different kinds of Meniscus Tears to guarantee precise diagnosis and efficient care. The types of Meniscus depend on location, pattern, and severity. Some of them are:

• Medial meniscus tear: The medial meniscus is torn in this place. The medial meniscus has limited mobility because it is securely fastened to the inside of the knee joint and ligament.
• Bucket handle meniscus tear: A vertical rip that runs the length of the meniscus from the shinbone to the thighbone is what this piece is. Approximately 10% of meniscus tears are classified as such. Due to the knee locking due to the torn meniscus, normal knee motion is typically difficult.
• Radial tear: One of the most prevalent kinds of tears is this one. This type of injury accounts for about 28% of all medial meniscus tears. Both the tibia and the long axis of Fibers in the meniscus are perpendicular to these tears. This means that by interfering with the structure that aids in weight distribution in the knee, they can increase the pressure on the joint.
• Horizontal Tear: The meniscus is divided into the top and bottom parts by a tear that runs parallel to the tibial plateau. Often linked to degeneration, partial meniscectomy or repair are possible treatments.
  Meniscus degenerative tear: Meniscus thinning or fraying as a result of aging or normal wear and tear and it is associated with osteoarthritis and prevalent in older persons.
• Posterior horn medial meniscus tear: The area where the meniscus and bone touch is where this rip is located. It most frequently occurs during inappropriate lifting of heavy objects or when practicing sports like tennis that require twisting motions. It can even be contracted by older adults while they are ascending stairs. It is common for symptoms to develop gradually, and you may eventually develop a stress fracture.
