New knee surgery aims to stop arthritis before it starts
NCT ID NCT06507241
Summary
This study is testing a specific surgical technique to repair a serious type of knee cartilage tear called a 'root tear.' The goal is to see if this surgery can help the meniscus heal properly and prevent the development of painful knee arthritis later on. Researchers will follow 59 patients for up to two years after their surgery, using MRI scans, ultrasounds, and questionnaires to measure knee health, pain, and function.
