The rationale, surgical selection and technique, aftercare, and results of meniscus repair have been presented with special emphasis on the unique issues relating to the competitive athlete. Even though the risk of rerupture is higher in an athlete than a nonathlete (just as the risk of injury to a normal meniscus is higher), and in spite of the increased amount of time required for meniscus healing and maturation before return to athletics, repair of suitable meniscus tears should be considered for most, if not all, athletes.
本文阐述了半月板修复的理论依据、手术选择与技术、术后护理以及结果，并特别强调了与竞技运动员相关的独特问题。尽管运动员再次撕裂的风险高于非运动员（正如正常半月板受伤的风险更高一样），而且在恢复运动之前半月板愈合和成熟所需的时间增加，但对于大多数（即使不是所有）运动员而言，仍应考虑对合适的半月板撕裂进行修复。
