RESUMEN

The meniscus is a glossy white structure found in the knee between the femoral condyle and tibial plateau in the medial and lateral aspects of both knees. The main purposes of the meniscus are to enhance joint congruity and stability, transmit load, and absorb stress. A rare type of anomaly of the meniscus shape is called discoid meniscus, which presents as an atypical shape also known as disk cartilage. This report presents a 13-year-old male with a history of left knee pain after a fall. The pain was stabby in nature with a decrease in range of motion in the left knee and positive McMurray and Apley's tests on examination. The patient was treated by arthroscopic saucerization, and the procedure was successful. The patient had a good postoperative outcome after two months of follow-up.
