Meniscus Repair / Meniscectomy

Meniscus Repair & Meniscectomy at Dr. Vijaykumar D Orthopaedics

Preserving Knee Function and Restoring Pain-Free Mobility

The meniscus is a C-shaped cartilage in the knee that acts as a shock absorber, stabilizer, and protector of the joint. Meniscus tears are among the most common knee injuries, often caused by sports, sudden twisting movements, or age-related degeneration. A torn meniscus can lead to pain, swelling, locking, and reduced movement, and if untreated, it may contribute to long-term cartilage damage and early arthritis.

At the clinic of Dr. Vijaykumar D – Best Orthopaedic Surgeon in Bangalore and Former Additional Professor of Orthopaedics, AIIMS, Delhi, we specialize in advanced meniscus repair and meniscectomy procedures. Using arthroscopic and minimally invasive techniques, our goal is to preserve as much of the meniscus as possible, restore knee stability, and protect long-term joint health.
