Christmas Operating Hours 
Partial knee meniscectomy is a surgical procedure that involves removing a part of the meniscus, a C-shaped piece of cartilage in your knee joint. Your meniscus acts as a shock absorber, and helps to distribute weight and lubricate the joint during movement.
A partial knee meniscectomy is typically performed when a patient has a tear in the meniscus that cannot be repaired through non-surgical treatments, such as physical therapy or medications. The procedure is usually performed arthroscopically; a minimally invasive technique that involves inserting a small camera and instruments into the knee joint through small incisions.
During the procedure, Dr Singh will remove the damaged or torn portion of the meniscus, leaving behind the healthy portion. This can help to relieve pain and improve knee function. After surgery, patients will typically undergo physical therapy to help regain strength and mobility in the knee.
It is important to note that while partial knee meniscectomy can be effective in treating certain types of meniscus tears, it may not be appropriate for all patients. Dr Singh can help determine if this procedure is right for you, based on factors such as the location and severity of your meniscus tear, as well as your overall health and medical history.
