About Meniscus Repair & Treatment
The meniscus is the cushion of cartilage between the thigh bone and the shin bone. Tears can cause pain, catching and swelling. Depending on the type and location of the tear, treatment may be rest and physiotherapy, meniscus repair, or removal of the damaged part, with the aim of protecting the knee for the long term.

Benefits of Treatment
Your Meniscus Treatment Journey
Comprehensive Knee Evaluation
Our orthopedic specialists assess your symptoms, injury history, physical examination findings, and imaging studies to determine the severity of the meniscus injury.
Advanced Diagnostic Assessment
MRI scans and other investigations help identify the type, location, and extent of the meniscus tear while evaluating associated ligament or cartilage injuries.
Personalized Treatment Planning
Depending on the injury, treatment may include conservative management, physiotherapy, regenerative therapies, or arthroscopic meniscus repair surgery.
Arthroscopic Meniscus Repair Procedure
When surgery is required, minimally invasive arthroscopic techniques are used to repair or preserve damaged meniscus tissue while minimizing trauma to surrounding structures.
Rehabilitation & Recovery
A customized rehabilitation program focuses on restoring knee strength, flexibility, balance, and functional movement.
