Meniscal Implant Survey
The purpose of this survey is to gather data from practicing sports medicine orthopedic surgeons regarding their general opinions on meniscal implant surgery as treatment alternative for complex meniscal pathology. This study will serve to provide researchers the insight as to what the current thought process is on synthetic meniscal implants in the orthopedic medical community. Knowing what the advantages, disadvantages and current trending practices are will help researchers determine the importance of these products and the procedures that accompany them.
