The meniscus is a rubbery, C-shaped piece of cartilage that acts as a shock absorber between your thighbone and shinbone. Each knee has two menisci, one at the outer edge of the knee and one at the inner edge of the knee. The menisci work together to provide stability to the knee joint by distributing your weight across the knee. When people talk about torn cartilage in the knee, they are usually referring to a torn meniscus. Meniscus tears are among the most common knee injuries.
