Hi all, sorry to say I tore my meniscus while on my "conservative" treat ment for my torn ACL.
I had an MRI, which was diagnosed as a complex bucket handle tear. I have no pain until I workout....
My OS looked at the 3D images and says he won't know until he gets in there with the 'scope whether he can do a repair or not.
Also, he says he may have to remove up to 30% of the meniscus. I'm hoping for the repair due to the long term affect of removing meniscus.
He scares the crap out of me....
Has anyone had a good outcome of a repair of a bucket handle meniscus tear? I'm looking for some light at the end of this tunnel.......
