Meniscus

A meniscus rupture may be of various types: a radial tear, flap tear, degeneration and a bucket handle lesion. The rupture may occur in the well or less vascularized part of the meniscus. The better the vascularity, the higher chance of healing (see Information Meniscus and Arthroscopy). The type of meniscal treatment dictates a specific rehabilitation. I have added my rehabilitation protocols for meniscectomy and meniscal sutures. The rehabilitation protocol Meniscus is intended for the treating physiotherapists and family physicians of my patients. It is only available in the Dutch version on this website.
