Dear Dr. Nabil, thank you so much for this very useful information 🙏🙏🙏 Every video of yours is very interesting! I also saw your website and there are many interesting articles. I always learn something new❤❤❤
A sensitivity of 70% seems relatively high, but I agree that palpation of the interline is likely the most accurate method. McMurray and Apley tests, while useful, tend to have lower sensitivity, making them less reliable as standalone diagnostic tools.
Patellar pain (painful grinding of knee cap) can masquerade as meniscal pain. I have seen several postop cases where patellar issues are not adequately addressed despite diagnosing it as tri-compartmental arthritis. THE WORST THING a desperate patient does when this happens is applying a tight ACE WRAP
You may have heard the word meniscus used in physics or chemistry, where it refers to the curved, moon-shaped or crescent-shaped surface of a fluid formed due to surface tension, causing the fluid at the peripheral regions to rise. The shape of the meniscus in the knee is similar to the meniscus seen in fluids at their interface with test tubes, which is why the terms are so similar. 🧪🧪🧪🧪🌙 🌙 🌙 🌙 Interestingly, the word menstruation is related to the word meniscus because meniscus refers to the crescent shape of the moon, and the menstrual cycle roughly corresponds to one lunar month. 🌙
As an ER doc I found this exquisite in its brevity and clarity
thanks

Does fraying of meniscus need surgery
