Advanced Arthroscopic Meniscus Repair by Dr. Hemendra Agrawal

Dr. Hemendra Agrawal
MBBS, MS (Orthopedics) · Consultant, Narayana Hospital
Overview
Meniscus repair is a minimally invasive arthroscopic procedure performed to repair a torn meniscus in the knee. The meniscus is a C-shaped cartilage that acts as a shock absorber between the femur (thigh bone) and tibia (shin bone), providing stability and cushioning to the joint.
Meniscus tears are common in athletes and active individuals and can occur due to sudden twisting movements, sports injuries, or degeneration over time. Symptoms include knee pain, swelling, locking, and restricted movement.
Dr. Hemendra Agrawal performs advanced arthroscopic meniscus repair using high-definition visualization and specialized instruments. The torn meniscus is stitched using modern repair techniques to preserve the natural cartilage and maintain joint health.
Preserving the meniscus is crucial as it reduces the risk of early arthritis and ensures long-term knee function. This minimally invasive approach offers faster recovery, minimal scarring, and excellent outcomes.
