[Gonarthrosis progression after meniscus operation].
Roentgenological follow-up results of meniscectomized patients were checked 10 years after the first inquiry. It is found that osseous changes after a lesion of the meniscus and removal of the meniscus are developed -- as a rule -- after a 10 to 12 years' period. Thereafter they only seldom show a tendency for a further progression.
