During the time period from 1982 to 1987, 32 patients, 17 females and 15 males, aging 14 to 47, had their lateral discoid menisci reshaped operatively into nearly normal configuration. Final results of the treatment were both subjectively and objectively satisfactory confirmed at the time of re-examinations, 3 to 48 months (25 pts. had been over one year) after operation. Reshaping the discoid meniscus not only brought about normal pattern of it, got rid of symptoms and signs caused by the discoid meniscus-itself, but also by eliminating the horizontal shearing force produced by non-physiological motion of the discoid meniscus, reasonably prevent, at least delay the development of osteoarthritis of that joint.
在1982年至1987年期间，32例患者（17例女性，15例男性，年龄在14至47岁之间）接受了手术治疗，将其外侧盘状半月板重塑为接近正常的形态。在术后3至48个月（25例患者超过1年）复查时，治疗的最终结果在主观和客观上均得到了满意的证实。重塑盘状半月板不仅使其形态恢复正常，消除了盘状半月板本身引起的症状和体征，而且通过消除盘状半月板非生理性运动产生的水平剪切力，合理地预防，至少延缓了该关节骨关节炎的发展。
