Although medial meniscus tears in stable knees are frequently seen in young active populations, there are few studies on their epidemiology, particularly in younger populations. The first step in reducing injury rates is to have a better understanding of injury patterns. This study set out to identify the demographic and athletic risk factors as well as the incidence of medial meniscus injuries. For pertinent information, Google Scholar, PubMed, Web of Science, Science Direct, and EBSCO were systematically searched. The entire careful procedure was carried out using the Rayyan QRCI. The current article included 16 studies, in which the overall prevalence of medial meniscal injuries became higher. The main parameters like age, sex, number of participants and period of study were obtained. The clinical studies were required to report the prevalence of medial meniscal injuries and the correlations related to the disorder. Meniscus tears are a frequent orthopedic disease. A thorough medical history, physical examinations, specialized diagnostic procedures, and most likely magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to confirm the lesion are all necessary for the diagnosis of meniscal tears. To create the best management strategy, a thorough understanding of the meniscal anatomy, the impacted motions, and the related symptoms is essential.
