Abstract
|
|
|
|
The most of discoid meniscus is located in lateral side. Medial discoid meniscus is rare. The medial discoid meniscus was reported by Cave and Staples at first in 1941 but rarely reported since then. A 8 year’s old boy was diagnosed as having a complete medial discoid meniscus by means of MRI and arthroscopy. Authors performed the arthroscopic partial menisectomy for medial discoid meniscus. For confirmation of the bilaterality, arthroscopic examination on contralateral knee was performed but we did not find a medial discoid meniscus. We report 1 case of a medial discoid meniscus with a brief review of literatures.
