Comparison of Isolated Meniscus Repair Versus Combined Meniscus Repair and Notch Microfracture: A Randomized Controlled Trial Evaluating Functional and Imaging Outcomes
Condition(s) studied
Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)
Isolated meniscus repair with notch Microfracture: prospective comparative study on isolated meniscus repair with and without microfracture
Isolated meniscus repair without notch microfracture: Isolated meniscus repair without notch microfracture
Study summary
This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of microfracture as an adjunctive augmentation technique in the repair of isolated meniscal tears. This will be achieved through comparing the functional and imaging outcomes of meniscus repair with notch microfracture in comparison with meniscal repair alone through a randomized control trial.
