Meniscus Repair & Transplantation at Dr. Vijaykumar D Orthopaedics

Advanced Solutions to Preserve Knee Function and Prevent Arthritis

The meniscus is a vital shock-absorbing cartilage in the knee that protects joint surfaces and ensures smooth movement. Tears or damage to the meniscus can cause pain, swelling, instability, and eventually lead to early arthritis if left untreated. Meniscus Repair & Transplantation procedures aim to preserve or restore the meniscus, helping patients maintain natural knee function and prevent long-term joint damage.

At the clinic of Dr. Vijaykumar D – Best Orthopaedic Surgeon in Bangalore and Former Additional Professor of Orthopaedics, AIIMS, Delhi, we offer advanced meniscus preservation and replacement procedures using minimally invasive arthroscopic, robotic-assisted, and transplantation techniques to ensure optimal recovery and long-lasting results.

Conditions Treated with Meniscus Repair & Transplantation

• Traumatic meniscus tears in young and active individuals

• Degenerative meniscus tears with preserved joint surfaces

• Complex or recurrent tears not suitable for simple trimming

• Meniscus deficiency after previous removal (meniscectomy)

Common Meniscus Procedures

• Arthroscopic Meniscus Repair – Stitching torn meniscus tissue to promote healing and preserve natural cartilage.
