Dilemma in chronic extrusion of medial meniscus with unicompartmental osteoarthritis in middle aged: a case report. Malaysian Journal of Medicine and Health Sciences, 15 (3). pp. 155-157. ISSN 2636-9346 (2019)



Abstract

Medial meniscus root tear (MMRT) is uncommon and is often associated with osteoarthritis during presentation. Whether it is a cause or effect, it is still debatable at this point of time. However, when a combination of injuries occurs in a middle age group patient, a careful examination before offering a treatment is advised. We herein report a case of a middle-aged gentleman suffering from both arthritis and MMRT.
