A method of repairing a meniscal tear of a subject includes providing a sheet of collagen membrane material having on one side thereof a smooth barrier face which inhibits cell adhesion thereon and inhibits passage of cells therethrough. The sheet has a fibrous face opposite the smooth barrier face, the fibrous face allowing cell growth thereon. The collagen is predominantly collagen I. The sheet of collagen membrane material is fixed over a meniscal tear so that the fibrous face is oriented toward the meniscal tear.

L~invention concerne une méthode pour réparer une déchirure méniscale d'un sujet qui consiste à employer une feuille de matériel membranaire collagène dont un côté comporte une face formant une barrière lisse sur laquelle l'adhésion de cellules est inhibée et à travers laquelle le passage de cellules est inhibé. La feuille possède une face fibreuse, à l~opposé de la face de barrière lisse, sur laquelle la croissance de cellules est permise. Le collagène est de façon prédominante du collagène I. La feuille de matériel membranaire collagène est fixée sur une déchirure méniscale pour que la face fibreuse soit orientée vers ladite déchirure.
