In the beginning of XXI century several randomized clinical studies (RCS) demonstrated inefficiency of lavage and debridement for knee OA. The evidence regarding partial meniscectomy for this category of patients remained uncertain. Therefore the published clinical guidelines are either controversial or inconclusive.</p> <p><bold><italic>The aim of this study</italic></bold> was to critically review the current RCS and meta-analyses of RCS as well as actual clinical guidelines of international orthopedic societies and compare them to expert opinions.</p> <p><bold><italic>Methods. </italic></bold>We searched PubMed and eLIBRARY databases for high evidence research and analyzed the current clinical guidelines dedicated to partial meniscectomy for knee OA. Sixty orthopedic surgeons specialized in this field interviewed anonymously to clarify the decision making process in real clinical practice.</p> <p><bold><italic>Results. </italic></bold>More than patients with knee 2/3 OA of with degenerative meniscal tear benefit from non-surgical treatment therefore indication for arthroscopic partial meniscectomy is limited. The majority of current clinical guidelines consider surgery as an second option if conservative treatment failed and only for non-advanced knee OA. On the contrary experts interview demonstrated the lack of standardized approach as well as a lot of controversies in clinical decision making.</p> <p><bold><italic>Conclusion.</italic></bold> The future research dedicated to partial meniscectomy in knee OA should be appropriately designed to clearly differentiate the sub-population of patient who may benefit from arthroscopy in the long-term without carrying the risk of rapid disease progression with premature conversion to arthroplasty.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><p><bold><italic>Актуальность. </italic></bold>Артроскопия многие десятилетия считалась наименее инвазивным из всех существующих хирургических методов лечения больных гонартрозом, однако проведенные в начале XXI в. рандомизированные клинические исследования (РКИ) продемонстрировали бесполезность изолированного лаважа и дебридмента у данной категории пациентов. В отношении частичной менискэктомии при гонартрозе существующая доказательная база остается весьма разнородной, что отражается в противоречивости или неопределенности клинических рекомендаций большинства профессиональных сообществ, посвященных данной проблеме.</p> <p><bold><italic>Целью исследования</italic></bold> стало проведение критического анализа публикаций высокого уровня доказательности и актуальных клинических рекомендаций, посвященных частичной менискэктомии у пациентов с гонартрозом для сравнения с мнением практикующих специалистов по данной проблеме.</p> <p><bold><italic>Материал и методы.</italic></bold> Нами были проанализированы РКИ и метаанализы РКИ в базах данных eLIBRARY и PubMed, а также действующие клинические рекомендации ведущих профессиональных сообществ, посвященные частичной менискэктомии у больных гонартрозом. Для детализации понимания процесса принятия решений в реальной клинической практике и оценки роли мнения эксперта в иерархии доказательной медицины был произведен анонимный опрос 60 практикующих травматологов-ортопедов, специализирующихся на лечении пациентов с данной патологией.</p> <p><bold><italic>Результаты.</italic></bold> Актуальные научные исследования высокого уровня доказательности демонстрируют, что более 2/3 больных гонартрозом с повреждением мениска достигают купирования симптомов в результате комплексного консервативного лечения, поэтому показания к артроскопии при дегенеративных заболеваниях коленного сустава носят весьма ограниченный характер. Большинство действующих клинических рекомендаций склоняются к артроскопической менискэктомии в качестве метода выбора лечения второго уровня после неэффективности неоперативного подхода и только у пациентов с минимальными клинико-рентгенологическими проявлениями гонартроза. В то же время проведенный нами опрос свидетельствует об отсутствии единого мнения о данной проблеме среди практикующих отечественных специалистов.</p> <p><bold><italic>Заключение.</italic></bold> Основываясь на полученных данных, следует констатировать необходимость проведения качественных многоцентровых исследований, которые позволят выявить конкретную группу пациентов с определенным фенотипом гонартроза, у которых артроскопическая менискэктомия может быть эффективной в долгосрочной перспективе, не ускоряя прогрессирование заболевания с последующей необходимостью эндопротезирования.</p></trans-abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="zh"><p/></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>knee osteoarthritis</kwd><kwd>arthroscopy</kwd><kwd>degenerative meniscal tear</kwd><kwd>meniscectomy</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>гонартроз</kwd><kwd>остеоартрит</kwd><kwd>коленный сустав</kwd><kwd>артроскопия</kwd><kwd>дегенеративный разрыв мениска</kwd><kwd>резекция мениска</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group/></article-meta></front><body></body><back><ref-list><ref id="B1"><label>1.</label><mixed-citation>Turkiewicz A., Gerhardsson de Verdier M., Engström G., Nilsson P.M., Mellström C., Lohmander L.S. et al.
