Popis: Abstract Background The indications and efficacy after arthroscopic partial meniscectomy (APM) for degenerative medial meniscus lesions (DMMLs) have been controversial. The purpose of this study was to identify predictors of unfavorable clinical and radiologic outcomes after APM for DMMLs and to choose appropriate indications and improve treatment efficacy. Methods A total of 86 patients with DMMLs undergoing APM were retrospectively reviewed. The mean follow-up time was 32.1 months. Clinical outcomes (including Lysholm score) and radiographic results (including Kellgren-Lawrence grade (K–L grade: 0/1/2/3/4) were evaluated at preoperative and final follow-up. Preoperative prognostic factors, including gender, age, Body Mass Index (BMI), Hip–Knee–Ankle (HKA), Medial Posterior Tibial Slope (MPTS), Medial Meniscus Extrusion (MME), K–L grade, occupational kneeling, and cartilaginous condition (Outerbridge grade ≤ 2, VS ≥ 3), for relatively unfavorable (fair or poor grade) Lysholm and progression of K–L grade, were investigated by multivariate logistic regression analysis. Receiver operating characteristic curve was used to identify a cutoff point for the extent of medial meniscal extrusion that was associated with the final Lysholm score. Results A significantly improved postoperative Lysholm score (84.5 ± 9.7) compared with the preoperative score (63.8 ± 9.3) (P
