title: Discoid Medial Meniscus: A Case Report.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  Here we present a rare finding of a discoid medial meniscus.
  
  
  METHODS
  Clinical reports, radiographs, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) results, and intraoperative arthroscopic images highlight this rare clinical entity.
  
  
  RESULTS
  We have demonstrated successful treatment with arthroscopic partial meniscectomy and saucerization of discoid medial meniscus.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Discoid medial menisci are a rare cause of medial knee pain and should be considered if classic MRI findings are associated with mechanical symptoms.
