Six-month Performance of Meniscal Wall Infiltration Under Ultrasound to Treat Stable Degenerative Meniscal Injuries.
Sponsor: Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Nīmes
Summary
The main hypothesis of the study is that in situ infiltration of the meniscal lesion would provide patients with lasting and greater relief than intra-articular infiltration. A statistically significant difference would be if the Lysholm score of the meniscal wall group at 3 months is 9.5 points higher than that of the intra-articular infiltration group. The aim is to evaluate the effectiveness of meniscal wall infiltration under ultrasound in the treatment of stable degenerative meniscal lesions versus intra-articular infiltration (Gold standard) at 3 months by Lysholm's algo-functional score.
