Meniscus Repair Surgery Experts Pune
Sancheti Hospital offers advanced meniscus repair to restore knee function, relieve pain, and help patients return to an active lifestyle safely.
What is Meniscus Repair Surgery?
The meniscus is a C-shaped cartilage in the knee that acts as a cushion between the thigh bone (femur) and shinbone (tibia). A meniscus tear is a common sports injury or result of age-related degeneration, often causing pain, swelling, and difficulty in knee movement. Meniscus repair surgery aims to preserve and repair the torn cartilage, restoring knee stability and preventing long-term complications such as arthritis.
At Sancheti Hospital, our orthopaedic experts specialize in arthroscopic meniscus surgery, a minimally invasive procedure where a small camera and surgical instruments are inserted through tiny incisions. Depending on the severity, patients may undergo arthroscopic meniscus repair surgery, meniscus root repair surgery, or in some cases, arthroscopic meniscectomy surgery (partial removal of the damaged meniscus). For patients with combined injuries, ACL reconstruction and meniscus repair surgery is performed to restore full knee function.
Benefits of Meniscus Repair Surgery
- Restores knee function and mobility.
- Preserves natural meniscus tissue, reducing risk of arthritis.
- Minimally invasive with faster recovery and smaller scars.
- Improves long-term joint health, especially in young and active patients.
- Enables return to sports and high-impact activities.
Limitations and Disadvantages
Not all meniscus tears are repairable; some may require removal (meniscectomy) instead of repair. Healing depends on the tear location—tears in areas with poor blood supply may not heal fully. Risks include stiffness, infection, incomplete healing, or need for revision surgery. Recovery requires strict adherence to physiotherapy, which may feel lengthy for some patients.

Most patients can walk with support within a few days but complete recovery may take 3–6 months depending on the severity of the tear.
Is meniscus repair surgery always possible?
No, the success of meniscus tear repair surgery depends on the type, size, and location of the tear. Some tears may require removal instead.
