NCT ID NCT07602985
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study will examine 30 adults with a specific type of meniscus tear in the knee (posterior horn medial meniscus root tear). Using MRI and arthroscopy, researchers will classify different tear patterns and see how they relate to cartilage damage and other knee problems. The goal is to better understand these injuries, which could help doctors choose the best treatment in the future.
