Brief Summary:
The important role of the menisci in knee function and in preserving knee health has been shown in several studies Additionally to principal functions of load transmission and shock absorption meniscus contributes to knee joint proprioception and probably also to joint stabilityStudy about affect of meniscus injury on balance posture has not previously been publishedSurgical practice is increasingly aimed at minimal resection of injured tissue preserving a stable meniscal remnant with as much function as possibleThe purpose of this study is to determine whether menisci surgery have any effects on relatively new postural control measures in correlation with functional balance assessment The second purpose is to establish the affect of different types of menisci surgery on balance impairment meniscectomy vs tear repair in correlation with a long-term outcome
