Watch a Knee Surgeon Treat a Meniscal Tear

When you tear your meniscus, what’s happening on the inside of the knee? And how do you treat it?

Here, Dave Duffy, specialist knee surgeon with Yorkshire Knee Clinic gives a fascinating look inside the knee during a meniscus procedure.

𝗡𝗼𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗾𝘂𝗲𝗮𝗺𝗶𝘀𝗵: This video features footage from an operation.

You will see:

• The off-white cartilages on the tibia and femur, and the meniscus itself
• The cutting of a torn piece of the meniscus and the shaving of loose pieces of meniscus

You won’t see:

• Blood (because the meniscus doesn’t have its own blood supply)
