Abstract

Arthroscopic partial meniscectomy (APM) is the most frequently performed orthopedic procedure. Functional outcomes of APM are variable, particularly among patients with underlying knee osteoarthritis. While most patients undergoing APM have knee magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) performed preoperatively, the prognostic value of knee MRI in predicting the functional outcomes of APM has not been evaluated.
