Sažetak
Sažetak. Prikazujemo rijedak slučaj velike simptomatske ciste medijalnog meniskusa udružene s horizontalnom rupturom stražnjeg roga meniskusa. Nakon kliničkog, rendgenskog i ultrazvučnog ispitivanja, dijagnoza je potvrđena MR pretragom koljena. Literatura podupire kiruršku terapiju koja uključuje potpunu artroskopsku tehniku, meniscektomiju i dekompresiju ciste. U našem slučaju pokazalo se da su artroskopska parcijalna meniscektomija i otvorena cistektomija učinkovit tretman u liječenju.
Summary
Summary. We will present a rare case of a large symptomatic cyst of the medial meniscus, conjoined with a horizontal tear of a posterior meniscal horn. After clinical, radiological and ultrasound examination, a diagnosis was confirmed with MRI examination of the knee. Literature supports surgical therapy, which includes complete arthroscopic technique, meniscectomy and decompression of the cyst. In our case, it showed that arthroscopic partial meniscectomy and opened cystectomy
were the efficient way of treatment.
