[en] Bilateral discoid medial menisci is an extremely rare condition of the knee and it can be associated to other pathological findings, including anterior portion cyst formation. We report on the clinical features, radiographic findings, treatment and results of one patient who presented a bilateral medial discoid meniscus combined with posterior portion cyst of the left knee. To the best of the author's knowledge, this is the first case of bilateral medial discoid meniscus associated with posterior portion cyst formation.
