Abstract

In the population of Malmö the average annual incidence of symptomatic meniscal lesions in children increased from 0.7 to 2.5 per 10,000 from 1960–1965 inclusive to 1980-1985 inclusive. Soccer was the predominant cause of the lesions, and the increased incidence of the diagnosis was associated with the introduction of arthroscopy.
