De meniscus werkt als een schokdemper van de knie. Bij scheuren in de meniscus is er lokale pijn over de gewrichtsspleet, is er pijn bij belasten, kan u door de knie zakken en kan de knie blokkeren.
Vaak kan dit soort letsel conservatief behandeld worden met kinesitherapie en zo nodig een infiltratie.
In sommige gevallen kan het kapotte deel van de meniscus worden verwijderd met een kijkoperatie.
