This trial follows patients who need a meniscus (knee shock-absorber) repair and receive a specific stitching device. The goal is to check how well the device works over time and whether it’s safe and effective.
This study tests a new surgical technique that uses a donor (allograft) bone-patellar tendon-bone graft to fix a torn ACL and also replaces the missing or damaged meniscus. It may help people whose knee problems haven't improved with other treatments and who are otherwise healthy enough for surgery.
This trial checks how loose the knee feels during surgery for ACL reconstruction, ACL revision, or meniscus transplantation. The goal is to better assess knee stability during the operation, which may help surgeons choose the best repair.
This trial tests a new approach to prevent arthritis after surgery to remove part of a torn meniscus. It looks at whether a treatment can stop the knee from wearing down after the operation.
This trial tests a special sleeve designed to help reduce pain and improve recovery after knee surgery for a torn meniscus. It may be a good option if you are having this type of knee surgery and are in generally good health.
This trial compares different treatments for knee osteoarthritis caused by a tear where the medial meniscus (the inner cushion of your knee) attaches to the bone. It aims to find the best approach to relieve pain and improve function in people with early to moderate arthritis.
