Bilateral Discoid Medial Menisci: A Case Report and Review of the Literature

Abstract

Bilateral discoid medial menisci are exceptionally rare and of uncertain pathoetiology. We report on a case in an active adolescent woman who presented with bilateral medial knee joint line pain. Clinical evaluation and MRI identified atypical bilateral discoid medial menisci bilaterally. The patient underwent bilateral meniscal saucerization, with no pain at 4 months postoperation, and returned to competitive sport.
