Arthroscopic Saucerization and All-Inside Repair of a Delaminated Discoid Lateral Meniscus
Arthroscopy Techniques, 2017 Preservation of the meniscus has been shown to influence the progression of degenerative changes of the knee. As more meniscus is preserved, the propensity for development of osteoarthritis is lessened.
