Abstract
Over the past several decades, scientific evidence has mounted to substantiate the vital role of the meniscus in the function of the knee. Total meniscectomy is rarely indicated and the pendulum of orthopedic popular opinion has swung toward new ways to preserve the injured meniscus. This article reviews the anatomy, blood supply, and function of the meniscus and also discusses the supporting scientific evidence, decision-making processes, and techniques for meniscal repair.
