About this study

The purpose of this study is to determine differences in pain, functional patient reported outcomes, and objective imaging parameters following non-operative and meniscus root repair treatment. Furthermore, the long-term goal of this research proposal is to understand the natural history of meniscal root tears and their subsequent repair, in order to better determine risk factors for inferior outcomes and progression to osteoarthritis (OA).
