Meniscus tears can be confusing. They can occur with trauma or not, they come in a variety of shapes and locations which can influence treatment options and outcomes profoundly, and the right treatment remains a matter of great debate. The literature is likewise confusing, and historically has been heterogeneous. Dr. Benjamin MA, MD, PhD from the famed UCSF joins us to discuss an international multi-society expert panel he took part in to generate consensus statements regarding meniscus tear treatment. The consensus statements give all of us in the Sports Medicine world some guidance and reassurance for our approach to this seemingly simple structure, the meniscus, that, when torn, is full of complexities.
