#Kneepain while running doesn’t always mean the same thing. #Runnersknee and #meniscustears can have different symptoms from pain location to catching or locking sensations. Learn how to tell them apart. https://t.co/uIXv4FfXv6 #kneehealth #kneetreatment #sportsmedicine
Radial #meniscustears are not just “another tear pattern.” Dr LaPrade explains their #MRI appearance/clinical significance. In younger patients, these injuries can be catastrophic due to loss of meniscal function & #kneestability. https://t.co/GQ7FTCZENk #orthotwitter #meniscus
Not all #meniscustears require surgery. Repair is considered for:
✅ Symptomatic tears (pain with pivoting, twisting, squatting)
✅ Complex tears (meniscocapsular, radial, root)
Goal: prevent further tearing and osteoarthritis in eligible patients. https://t.co/lc0U2fNkTT
This study compares the diagnostic accuracy of #MRI vs. intraoperative arthroscopy for identifying #meniscustears. Understanding reliability of imaging guides clinical decision-making & ensures patients receive the most appropriate treatment. https://t.co/BmUNpUh1SE #medtwitter
Are #MCL and #meniscustears the same thing?
❌ Nope.
🔹The MCL is a ligament that stabilizes the inside of the knee
🔹The medial meniscus is a cushion that absorbs shock
While they’re close in location, they’re very different injuries. https://t.co/mhVuxlx8F8
Strong technique = strong repair. Dr LaPrade prefers vertical mattress sutures for most #meniscustears—the biomechanical gold standard. But for:
🔹Undersurface tears
🔹Radial lateral #meniscus tears
Horizontal sutures are key to restoring proper position. https://t.co/LHvmqSrVgG
Posterior horn lateral #meniscustears:
✅ Repair when possible
❌ Not repairable? Monitor for #arthritis
Future options:
• Activity modification
• Bracing
• Injections
• Lateral meniscal transplantation
Thorough physical + imaging workup is essential. https://t.co/bocM6fe55o

When it comes to #meniscustears, Dr. LaPrade opts for the vertical mattress suture repair! This technique is biomechanically the strongest, ensuring optimal healing. In specific cases, a horizontal mattress suture is also employed to restore anatomy. https://t.co/32rE4InmPx
Treating posterior horn lateral #meniscustears often involves sutures or pull-through suture repair. If repair isn't possible, options include observation, bracing, activity modification, injections, or #meniscus transplantation. Proper work-up is key! https://t.co/LCSANQ92iv

Should young patients with #meniscustears opt for early surgery or an exercise & education strategy with optional delayed surgery? #Kneejoint damage concerns shouldn't steer the treatment choice. Let's discuss the best approach in this study. https://t.co/8f3sXIHlSR #medtwitter
