Which of the following statements is NOT true about medial meniscus?

Semicircular in shape
More mobile
More commonly injured than lateral meniscus
Injury of medial meniscus is commonly among young athletes

Explanation

Answer: B - More mobile is not a true statement about the medial meniscus.

Medial meniscus is a semi lunar fibro cartilage, present between the medial condyles of the femur and tibia. It is less movable and that is why medial meniscus is more prone to injury than the lateral. Usually a medial meniscus injury is accompanied by anterior cruciate or medial collateral ligaments.
