Abstract
Patients having undergone prior meniscus surgery have better knowledge of meniscus injury and treatment than those who have not had previous meniscus injury. Meniscus repair is believed to be the most common treatment rather than meniscectomy. The risk of needing additional surgery and the risk of arthritis developing after meniscus surgery are the main concerns among respondents.
