Walking function during various periods of treatment and rehabilitation for meniscus damage

Background. Meniscus injuries are one of the most common injuries to the knee joint. Diagnosis of meniscus damage in combination with osteoarthritis of the knee joint is difficult due to the large number of false positive and false negative results. A biomechanical study of gait will allow you to study the results of treatment and rehabilitation of patients after arthroscopic resection. Materials and Methods. Examined 47 patients with traumatic and degenerative tears of the menisci of the knee joint. Before and after surgical treatment of 10 people (group 1), only before treatment 22 (group 2), only after surgical treatment, 15 patients (group 3). We studied the biomechanics of walking and the function of the knee and hip joints. In group 1 the time from the onset of the disease until surgical treatment was 9.7 months. Rating of KOOS scale before treatment was 29.4 score, after treatment of 80.2 In the 2-nd group score was 34.2 points and the third group with 85.6 points...
