Identifying the risk factors for MMPRT is essential for early diagnosis. Although the discoid lateral meniscus (DLM) is a common congenital variant, no studies have reported on the relationship between MMPRT and DLM. This study aimed to examine the relationship between MMPRT and DLM.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This retrospective cohort study included 94 matched knees that underwent arthroscopic surgery between 2015 and 2021 (58 with MMPRT and 36 with other MM injuries). The matching was performed according to age and sex. Morphological analysis of the lateral meniscus (LM) was performed using coronal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). DLM was defined as an LM ratio (LM width\/tibial width)\u2009&gt;\u20090.20. LM width, LM ratio and DLM prevalence were compared between the two groups. In the MMPRT group, subgroup analysis compared the preoperative and 1\u2010year postoperative clinical outcomes between patients with and without DLM.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      The PRT group showed significantly greater LM width (12.6\u2009\u00b1\u20093.1\u2009mm vs. 11.1\u2009\u00b1\u20092.2\u2009mm;\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u20090.03) and LM ratio (0.18\u2009\u00b1\u20090.04 vs. 0.16\u2009\u00b1\u20090.03;\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u20090.01) compared with the other group.
