RESUMEN
Se realizó un estudio descriptivo y transversal de 53 pacientes con diagnóstico clínico y por resonancia magnética de afección meniscal, atendidos en el Hospital General Docente Dr Juan Bruno Zayas Alfonso de Santiago de Cuba, desde enero de 2011 hasta diciembre de 2012. En la serie prevalecieron las lesiones meniscales en los más jóvenes, con edad media de 43 años y similar para ambos sexos, así como el antecedente de trauma (58,5 por ciento), con manifestaciones de dolor, dificultad para la marcha y aumento de volumen en el total de integrantes; asimismo, las lesiones se localizaron fundamentalmente en la rodilla derecha, en el menisco externo y en los cuernos posteriores de ambos meniscos. Los tipos de lesiones más diagnosticadas resultaron ser las roturas incompletas, las completas y los cambios degenerativos, asociadas fundamentalmente a sinovitis. Existió excelente relación diagnóstica entre la resonancia magnética y la artroscopia(AU)
