This meta-analysis found that compared with preoperative, the clinical effect of the final follow-up was significantly improved. However, MS, SI, and IIRMC in MRI parameters did not change significantly. In addition, the final follow-up results of AC and AME showed a deteriorating trend. Therefore, for patients with partial meniscus defects, polyurethane meniscal scaffold seem to be a viable option, and further research is needed to determine whether the deterioration of AC and AME is clinically relevant.
