Knee Meniscus Removal Surgery

The provider incises the knee joint to remove damaged crescent moon shaped cartilages, or menisci, from both the medial and lateral joint compartments that separate the femur, or thigh bone, from the tibia bone in the lower leg. A torn or frayed meniscus results from a twisting injury to the knee. Choose a location to see hospital-reported price summaries. This page does not show national, sample, or aggregate pricing.
