Tear of unspecified meniscus, current injury ICD-10-CM S83. 207A is grouped within Diagnostic Related Group(s) (MS-DRG v39.0):
Articular cartilage is the dense, fibrous cartilage cap that covers the ends of bones within the joint. In the knee, articular cartilage covers the lower end of the femur (thigh bone), the upper end of the tibia (shin bone), and the undersurface of the patella (knee cap).

What is an articular cartilage fissure? A fissure in the cartilage is basically a crack. This crack can be just in the surface tissue, which is common in the kneecap cartilage because it is so thick, or it may extend down to bone.
Cartilage can be damaged or torn as a result of an accident or conditions such as arthritis. Knee cartilage damage can be caused by a sudden twisting movement or a direct impact to the knee – both of which happen in sports such as rugby, squash, football or skiing. Arthritis is a common cause of knee cartilage damage.
Articular cartilage can be damaged by injury or normal wear and tear. Because cartilage does not heal itself well, doctors have developed surgical techniques to stimulate the growth of new cartilage. Restoring articular cartilage can relieve pain and allow better function.
A medial meniscus tear is an injury to the meniscus (cartilage tissue) that is located on the inside (inner aspect) of the knee. Injuries to the medial meniscus are more common than lateral meniscus injuries and may result in pain, stiffness, swelling, locking, catching, or buckling.

Anatomy and Physiology. Internal derangement of the knee is a mechanical disorder of the knee which interferes with normal joint motion and/or mobility. A fragment of soft tissue or bone that suddenly becomes interposed between the articular surfaces is the classic cause of internal derangement.
Once damaged, articular cartilage will not heal on its own. And over time, the cartilage breaks down and the underlying bone reacts. As the bone stiffens and develops bone spurs (osteophytes), the joints become inflamed and swollen, which damages the cartilage even more, leading to pain, swelling or loss of motion.
The bones that meet at synovial joints are covered with a thin layer of cartilage known as articular cartilage. (Articular simply means “having to do with joints.”) Articular cartilage forms a smooth, durable covering (almost the consistency of linoleum) at the end of each bone in the joint.
Symptoms of cartilage damage joint pain – this may continue even when resting and worsen when you put weight on the joint. swelling – this may not develop for a few hours or days. stiffness. a clicking or grinding sensation.
Articular cartilage is the highly specialized connective tissue of diarthrodial joints. Its principal function is to provide a smooth, lubricated surface for articulation and to facilitate the transmission of loads with a low frictional coefficient (Figure 1).
