When you tear your meniscus, what’s happening on the inside of the knee? And how do you treat it?

Here, Dave Duffy, specialist knee surgeon with Yorkshire Knee Clinic gives a fascinating look inside the knee during a meniscus procedure.

𝗡𝗼𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗾𝘂𝗲𝗮𝗺𝗶𝘀𝗵: This video features footage from an operation.

You will see:

• The off-white cartilages on the tibia and femur, and the meniscus itself
• The cutting of a torn piece of the meniscus and the shaving of loose pieces of meniscus

You won’t see:

• Blood (because the meniscus doesn’t have its own blood supply)
