Discoid meniscus of the knee is a well-known congenital abnormality of the lateral meniscus, and more frequent in East Asia. This study aimed to assess the relationship between discoid lataral meniscus and gait pattern in ADL and sports activities. We evaluated 10 knees in 8 patients underwent arthroscopic surgery at our institution and compared to the control group(n=9). Now we are evaluating the results of the gait analysis.
