A follow-up study was undertaken to study the late results and complications of meniscectomy of the knee. The material consisted of 43 operations, with an observation period of 5 to 20 years. The purpose of the study was to investigate the appearance of osteoarthrosis after the operation, correlating the degree of osteoarthrosis with the physical findings and subjective complaints of the patient. 14 patients showed osteoarthrotic changes, which may have been caused by the operation and/or by a pre-existing menisceal trauma. The osteoarthrotic changes were related to clinical pathological findings, but not necessarily to subjective complaints.
开展了一项随访研究，以研究膝关节半月板切除术的远期疗效和并发症。该研究材料包括43例手术，观察期为5至20年。本研究的目的是调查手术后骨关节炎的出现情况，将骨关节炎的程度与患者的体格检查结果和主观症状相关联。14例患者出现了骨关节炎改变，这可能是由手术和/或先前存在的半月板损伤所致。骨关节炎改变与临床病理结果相关，但不一定与主观症状相关。
