Normal menisci of the knee are semilunar structures. Sometimes, a meniscus may be found to be thickened and disc like and is called a discoid meniscus. Such a discoid variant is usually found in the lateral meniscus. Its occurrence in the medial meniscus is extremely rare.
We report a case of an 18-year-old female, who presented to us with knee pain and was found to have a discoid medial meniscus with a tear. We operated on her arthroscopically and performed meniscectomy and meniscoplasty. Postoperatively, the patient was free of her knee pain.
Discoid medial meniscus is a rare phenomenon which can present as a cause of knee pain. If discoid meniscus is symptomatic, the management includes arthroscopic meniscectomy and meniscoplasty.
正常的膝关节半月板为半月形结构。有时,可发现半月板增厚且呈盘状,称为盘状半月板。这种盘状变异通常见于外侧半月板。其在内侧半月板中极为罕见。
我们报告一例18岁女性,因膝关节疼痛前来就诊,检查发现内侧盘状半月板伴撕裂。我们对其进行了关节镜手术,实施了半月板切除术和半月板成形术。术后,患者膝关节疼痛消失。
内侧盘状半月板是一种罕见现象,可作为膝关节疼痛的原因。如果盘状半月板有症状,治疗方法包括关节镜下半月板切除术和半月板成形术。
