Insight into Horizontal Flap Tears of the Meniscus

Patterns of Displacement:

• For medial meniscus tears, 93% of fragments are located medially or posterolaterally, commonly in the superior or inferior recesses.
• In contrast, lateral meniscal fragments exhibit a more varied distribution.
• In medial cases, two-thirds show the fragment displaced posteriorly, towards or behind the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL).
• The remaining cases often have the fragment in the medial gutter's recesses, predominantly the superior recess.
