Meniscus Root Tears of the Knee: Overview

I'lll review a very specific type of tear of the meniscus in the knee, a meniscal root tear (:50).  I'll go over some of the anatomical differences of meniscal root tears versus a common meniscal tear, as well as highlight the difference in the way in which these tears are treated (1:40).  Finally, I'll cover the rehab process that is specific to meniscal root repairs (6:48).
