ABSTRACT
Introduction: meniscus lesions of knee in patients with osteoarthritis are very common, showed by Henderson´s triad, thereby further limiting the movement of knee joint.
Development: a literature review was conducted with regard to the following aspects: normal biochemical composition of meniscus, alterations that suffer during the degenerative joint process of knee, cause-effect relationship between meniscus and presence of osteoarthritis. Finally it is mentioned the treatment via arthroscopy and authors´ own outcomes with reference to citations from international authors.
Conclusions: meniscus lesions have different behavior in patients with osteoarthritis of knee. The result of surgical treatment via arthroscopy constitutes a source of good prognosis and the absence or decrease of meniscal tissue increases the progression of degenerative joint disease of knee.
