A member asked:

How is a displaced meniscus diagnosed? how can it be displaced ? please explain? i had surgery and apparently it was displaced after surgery how?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Let me help you: Disdisplace meniscus diagnose on clinical history, MRI finding. I am going to give some picture to look at. If you had surgery for displaced meniscus the surgery supposes to fix it. You better ask your surgeon that question?
