When Meniscus Repair Surgery Isn't the Right Fit
@https://vishalpai.com.au/meniscal-surgery/
Not every meniscus tear is a good candidate for repair. Location matters, and so does whether the tissue in that part of the meniscus has enough blood supply to heal once it's been stitched back together. Some tears are better managed by removing the damaged section instead during meniscus repair surgery.
A proper assessment of the tear is what clarifies whether repair or another approach makes more sense, if meniscus repair surgery has come up as an option. Get in touch with Mr Vishal Pai, orthopaedic knee surgeon in Melbourne, to talk through meniscus repair surgery and what's actually involved.
