Here are the most reputed hospitals in India for Meniscus Repair Surgery. These hospitals are known for advanced infrastructure, international accreditations, and high success rates.
Meniscus repair surgery is an arthroscopic procedure in which a surgeon stitches together the torn edges of the meniscus — the C-shaped cartilage cushion inside the knee — so that it can heal as one continuous piece. It is typically recommended for younger, active patients with tears in the outer, well-vascularised zone of the meniscus, where blood supply supports reliable healing. Unlike meniscectomy (trimming away the torn portion), repair preserves the cartilage and is associated with better long-term joint health and a lower risk of osteoarthritis. The operation is performed through two or three small incisions using an arthroscope and takes roughly 45 to 90 minutes. Recovery is longer than after a meniscectomy — most patients use crutches for several weeks and require four to six months of structured physiotherapy before returning to sport.
The repair is completed entirely through the arthroscope using specialised fixation devices, with no additional incisions beyond the standard small arthroscopy portals.
Estimated cost: ~$200 – $400
Typical tests for this variant: MRI of the knee (if not done recently), X-ray of the knee (weight-bearing AP and lateral views), CBC, Blood sugar, Coagulation profile (PT/INR), ECG. Done in India before hospital admission.
Estimated cost in India: $3,000 – $4,000
Pre-procedure stay (outside hospital): ~2 days
Hospitalisation: ~2 days
Recovery period (outside hospital): ~6 days recommended
Total stay: approx 10 days
Sutures are passed from inside the knee outward through a small additional incision at the back of the knee, giving strong fixation especially for tears in the middle and posterior meniscus.
Estimated cost: ~$200 – $400
Typical tests for this variant: MRI of the knee (if not done recently), X-ray of the knee (weight-bearing AP and lateral views), CBC, Blood sugar, Coagulation profile (PT/INR), ECG, Neurovascular assessment of the lower limb (clinical). Done in India before hospital admission.
Estimated cost in India: $3,000 – $4,000
Pre-procedure stay (outside hospital): ~2 days
Hospitalisation: ~2 days
Recovery period (outside hospital): ~6 days recommended
