Meniscus repair study with or without ligament surgery
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study looks at how well meniscus repairs (using the all-inside technique) work over time, both when done alone and when combined with ligament reconstruction. It may help you understand the success of this surgery for your knee.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You had meniscus repair surgery between January 2017 and June 2025 with a specific technique called all-inside.
- You were between 12 and 65 years old at the time of your surgery.
- You had an MRI before surgery showing a meniscus tear that needed repair, and this was confirmed during the surgery.
- You were active in sports in the 2 years before your surgery.
- You agree to take part in this study and can be contacted for follow-up.
- Your meniscus tear is new (not a repeat repair of a previous surgery).

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests a surgical technique to fix a certain type of meniscus tear (called a root tear) by stitching it to the knee's posterior cruciate ligament. The goal is to see if this approach helps patients recover better.
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 study tracks people who had surgery to reattach the medial collateral ligament (MCL) in the knee, alone or with other repairs. It measures how well and how safely they return to sports. If you had this surgery, you may help improve future care.
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 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 study looks at results after a particular surgery to repair a meniscus root tear in the knee. It may help doctors understand which patients benefit most and what outcomes to expect.
