ABSTRACT:
A meniscectomy knife includes a preformed cutting trace through which a cutting element moves in response to motion producing means disposed on a handle. The cutting trace defines an arc having a size and shape which closely correspond to the lines of stress along a meniscus in the meniscal region of a human knee joint.
