Return to Work Following Arthroscopic Meniscal Allograft Transplantation.

In patients with painful meniscal deficiency, MAT provides a high rate of RTW (97.8%) by 2.7 ± 2.6 months postoperatively. However, some patients may be unable to return to their previous level of occupational intensity. Although statistically insignificant, patients with higher intensity occupations may have a lower rate and longer duration until RTW than those with less physically demanding occupations. Information regarding RTW is imperative for appropriately managing postoperative expectations.
