Art. 9 al. 1 OLAA; meniscal lesion and notion of accident-related injury: a meniscal lesion is not covered merely because it is medically diagnosed as a lesion. Coverage requires that the injury fall within the legal notion of an accident or an equivalent accidental lesion. In the absence of such accidental genesis, accident insurance benefits may be refused (cf. consid. unspecified).
