A member asked:
I have complex lateral meniscal tear w/ the lateral flap involving the anterior horn and body. full thickness cartilage injuries to wt bearing surface?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Arthritis: Lateral meniscal tears are always a concern, but even more worrisome when arthritis is present. The tear could be incidental. Assess the joint space with standing straight, flexed views and assess alignment. Be very cautious when discussing the source of your pain and optimal treatment.
