Understanding the structure and function of the meniscus is critical to understanding its role in overall knee joint function. Injury to, or removal of, meniscal tissue may be associated with articular cartilage wear, knee instability, and, ultimately, the progression of osteoarthritis. While every effort is made for preserving and/or repairing damaged meniscal tissue, in some cases, the meniscus is not amenable to repair after injury. For appropriately indicated patients with symptomatic meniscal deficiency, meniscus allograft transplantation is an excellent surgical solution aimed at reducing pain and improving function. Indications for meniscus allograft transplantation are limited, and concomitant procedures such as osteotomy for malalignment, ligamentous, and/or articular cartilage restoration may be necessary in order to ensure an optimal result following meniscus allograft transplantation. Surgical techniques for meniscus allograft transplantation are variable and include soft-tissue fixation versus bone plug fixation versus bone bridge fixation. Outcomes following meniscus allograft transplantation are generally good to excellent, though reoperation rates are relatively high. The purpose of this article is to provide a concise review of recently published data on meniscus allograft transplantation, with a focus on recent outcomes studies.
