Physical therapy after arthroscopic partial meniscectomy: is it effective?
Exerc Sport Sci Rev.

Abstract
Controversy in the literature has prompted clinicians to question the effectiveness of physical therapy after knee arthroscopic partial meniscectomy. Studies reviewed in this paper show there is little evidence that formal physical therapy is necessary to return patients to their normal receiving this care.
