Comparative study between isolated medial meniscus root repair versus open-wedge high tibial osteotomy versus combined approach in patients with root tears, 2-year follow-up

Abstract
Background Medial meniscus root tears usually lead to loss of hoop tension of the meniscus and result in high-contact pressure in the medial compartment of the knee. Surgical management of those types of tears is mandatory to restore hope tension and to save medial compartment. This study was done to evaluate the necessity of medial root repair with high tibial osteotomy (HTO) for treatment of med...
