title: Arthrographically assisted splint therapy: a 6-month follow-up.
abstract: After repositioning splint therapy, 51 patients were evaluated for a minimum of 6 months. Forty-five (88%) of the patients were considered to have been treated successfully, whereas six (12%) patients required surgery to correct meniscal displacement. A detailed analysis of signs and symptoms before and after splint treatment is in progress.
