Question:
An article in Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy [“Arthroscopic Meniscal Repair with an Absorbable Screw: Results and Surgical Technique” (2005, Vol. 13, pp. 273–279)] cites a success rate of more than 90% for meniscal tears with a rim width under 3 mm, but only a 67% success rate for tears of 3–6 mm. If you are unlucky enough to suffer a meniscal tear of under 3 mm on your left knee and one of width 3–6 mm on your right knee, what is the probability mass function of the number of successful surgeries? Assume that the surgeries are independent.
