Meniscus :

What are the transplant options? - - Posted by Bigdog (Bigdog), 7 January 2005

If the OS has to remove my Meniscus, what are my transplant options?  Can i return to playing basketball afterwards? What level of play should i expect?  How long will it last?

You can have a transplant if you don't already have too much arthritis in your knee. Your return to sports should be in about 1 year depending on if you have any problems or complications

Hey Pegleg78,

Looking at your resume can you still participate in any physical activities.  Did you have a transplant.  Any advice you can relay to me?

I sent you a message about return to sports. Unfornatly I can't participate in sports yet due to complications.
