Abstract

A case of a rare, large discoid medial meniscus with a bucket-handle tear is described. The radiogram was normal and the clinical impression was torn medial meniscus. A diagnostic arthroscopy revealed an unusually large medial discoid meniscus with a bucket-handle tear. Open partial excision was performed following the arthroscopy.
