Meniscus repair is a specialised orthopaedic procedure designed to treat tears in the meniscus — the cartilage that cushions and stabilises the knee joint. These injuries commonly occur due to sports activities, sudden twisting movements, or age-related degeneration.
Dr. Nishant Bhatia performs advanced arthroscopic meniscus repair procedures aimed at preserving natural knee cartilage, relieving pain, and restoring joint stability while minimising surgical trauma.
Common Causes of Meniscus Injury:
- Sports-related twisting or pivoting movements
- Sudden knee trauma or impact
- Degenerative cartilage changes with age
- Repetitive stress on the knee joint
Benefits of Meniscus Repair:
- Preserves natural knee cartilage
- Reduces pain, swelling, and locking
- Improves knee stability and mobility
- Helps prevent early onset of arthritis
- Minimally invasive surgery with faster recovery
Early diagnosis and timely meniscus repair play a vital role in maintaining long-term knee health and preventing progressive joint damage.
