• Preservation of the meniscus is the first-line option because the clinical and radiological long-term outcomes are worse after partial meniscectomy than meniscus repair.
• Thus, repair is recommended for medial meniscus tears, unstable tears, such as bucket handle and double longitudinal tears, and isolated meniscus tears.
• However, repaired chronic meniscus tears achieve good to excellent results and thus should be repaired, when indicated, instead of partially resected.
• This recommendation also includes late repairs, if technically reasonable, because healing rates are still very good, even for late repairs.
• A repair that is completed as early as possible appears to produce a better clinical outcome, including a decreased failure rate.
• The most reliable technique to assess meniscus healing is arthroscopy.
