Decrease in medial meniscal extrusion after physical therapy to improve knee pain and range of motion in patients with knee osteoarthritis: A retrospective study.

Background: Medial meniscal extrusion (MME) is the medial displacement of the meniscus, which extends beyond the tibial margin. Studies have shown an association between MME and knee pain and that surgical treatment can reduce the extent of MME. Here, we describe the beneficial effects of physical therapy as a feasible conservative treatment for MME.
