الوصف: | Objectives: The aim of the study was to assess the functional outcome of the knee in patients before and after meniscal root repair. Material and Methods: This study was a prospective study done on 52 patients with Meniscal Root tear treated by arthroscopic repair. The follow-up period was 6 weeks, 3 months, and 6 months. Functional outcome was assessed using the VAS and Lysholm Knee Score. Results: The VAS pre-operative was 7.46, the VAS post-operative at 6 weeks was 4.23, the VAS post-operative at 3 months was 3.12 the VAS post-operative at 6 months was 1.19. As compared to preoperative scores at the end of 6 months the difference was statistically significant with a p-value < 0.001. Following surgery there was an excellent outcome in most of the cases with respect to the range of motion, overall, the improvement in the range of motion was statistically significant with a p-value < 0.001. On the evaluation of the Lysholm Knee Score, there was a significant difference between the pre-operative and post-operative scores at each follow-up. The pre-op was 68.52, the Lysholm Knee Score post-op - 6 weeks was 81.72, the Lysholm Knee Score post-op - 3 months was 85.72, and the Lysholm Knee Score post-op - 6 months was 92.23. As compared to preop scores at the end of 6 months the difference was statistically significant with a p-value < 0.001. Conclusion: In the present study we found that sports-related injuries were commoner, seen more in males and in young. Following meniscus repair, it is possible to get a good range of motion back post-operatively. A fair number of cases get back their knee function if appropriate post-operative physiotherapy rehabilitation protocol is followed. |
