My husband has complex tear of the body and posterior horn of the medial meniscus with flap components, horizontal oblique tear of the body and posterior horn lateral meniscus. he is 44 y o tennis player. can he still play tennis with this injury?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
The described meniscal tears will lead to possible necessary total knee replacement. A referral to an orthopedic physician should result in guidance which may include arthroscopic repair of the menisci and avoid bone to bone erosion of the knee joint.
