Functional Recovery after Arthroscopic Management of Meniscal Tears

Journal of Orthopaedic Case Reports | 2026 | Shivvir Singh, Atul Solanki, Anil Vaishnav

Introduction: Among young, physically active people, meniscal injuries are one of the most frequent causes of knee dysfunction. Due to its minimally invasive nature and potential for early functional recovery, arthroscopic management has emerged as the preferred treatment strategy for symptomatic meniscal tears. This study used validated knee-specific scoring systems to assess...
