Outcome of repaired unstable meniscal tears in children and adolescents
Original language description
Background Unstable meniscal tears are rare injuries in skeletally immature patients. Loss of a meniscus increases the risk of subsequent development of degenerative changes in the knee. This study deals with the outcome of intraarticular meniscal repairand factors that affect healing. Parameters of interest were type and location of the tear and also the influence of simultaneous reconstruction of a ruptured ACL. Methods We investigated the outcome of 25 patients (29 menisci) aged 15 (4-17) years whounderwent surgery for full thickness meniscal tears, either as isolated lesions or in combination with ACL ruptures. Intraoperative documentation followed the IKDC 2000 standard. Outcome measurements were the Tegner score (pre- and postoperatively) and the Lysholm score (postoperatively) after an average follow-up period of 2.3 years, with postoperative arthroscopy and MRT in some cases. Results 24 of the 29 meniscal lesions healed (defined as giving an asymptomatic patient) regardless o
