Funded Activity Summary

It can be hard to decide what treatment to use for people with pain and disability who have had the meniscus cartilage removed from the knee. Some surgeons try to improve pain and function by replacing the lost meniscus with a transplant from a donor who has died. The alternatives include exercises, physiotherapy, and bracing. This study will help us understand if the results for people who have the transplant are better or worse than for exercise and physiotherapy.
