A torn meniscus can be repaired through various methods, depending on the tear's location and severity. Surgical options include arthroscopic repair, where small incisions are made, allowing the surgeon to stitch the torn cartilage together. In some cases, part of the meniscus may be removed if it's irreparable, a procedure known as meniscectomy. Rehabilitation follows surgery to restore function and strength to the knee.
