The article offers the author's insights on the identify of symptomatic meniscal tear in knee osteoarthritis (OA) of older and middle aged patients and the belief on the effective treatment of arthroscopic partial meniscectomy (APM). Topics mentioned include the train to clinicians on the symptoms, the trial that shows the benefits of APM compared to arthroscopic lavage, and the suggestion to clinicians to present nonoperative intervention if physical therapy (PT) is not helpful. |
