Abstract

In this article, problems of relationships between varus deformities on the knee joint level and the medial meniscus are examined. There is statistical and mathematical evidence of a destructive effect, produced by varus deformities on the medial meniscus. It was revealed that varus deformities on the knee joint level did not result from interventions on the medial meniscus. Progression of arthrotic changes in the tibiofemoral joint after removal of the medial meniscus without taking into account the varus deformity is statistically proved. It is recommended that interventions on the medial meniscus should be combined with correction of frontal deformities at the knee joint level.
