Conversion to arthroplasty is more common after meniscectomy than meniscus repair in patients older than age 40

Objectives: To describe rates of conversion to unicompartmental or total knee arthroplasty (KA) in patients over the age of 40 years (at initial surgery) after partial meniscectomy (ME) or meniscal repair (MR). Methods: Patients over the age of 40 undergoing isolated ME or MR between 2016 and 2018 [for full text, please go to the a.m. URL]
