A member asked:
Does a grade two signal within the posterior horns of the laterial and medial menisci need surgery?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Well...: Your MRI signals certainly don't need the surgery, but if you have clinical signs and symptoms of a medial meniscal tear that doesn't respond to conservative therapy and causes continual pain, disability preventing you from participating in your normal activities then you might need arthroscopy and menisectomy. All the best!
