Abstract
In this pictorial essay, we describe the position of the displaced meniscal fragment using the clock face method with an aim to guide the arthroscopist about its exact displaced location. Accurate diagnosis of meniscal tears and their displacements, along with their description, is imperative for arthroscopists to help with appropriate treatment. Using the clock face method for describing the displaced fragment, a uniform description of the displacements can be standardized.
