A Technique of Improved Medial Meniscus Visualization by Anterior Cruciate Ligament Graft Placement in Chronic Anterior Cruciate Deficient Knees [PDF]
It is customary to perform medial meniscus repair before anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) graft placement when undertaken as a combined procedure. However, in chronic ACL-deficient knees, intraoperative anterior tibiofemoral translation can cause the ...

Effective Reduction and Centralization of the Extruded Medial Meniscus With Capsular Advancement [PDF]
Medial meniscus extrusion significantly compromises the load-distribution function of the meniscus, accelerating the progression of osteoarthritis. Current medial meniscus centralization techniques often involve release of the meniscotibial ligament ...

Nanoscopic Medial Meniscus Repair [PDF]
Arthroscopic meniscus repair is one of the commonly used arthroscopic surgical procedures. Open treatment was the standard for meniscus repairs and recently arthroscopic all-inside treatment has become popular. Novel and more minimally invasive techniques to common arthroscopic procedures are paving the foundation to better patient outcomes.

Medial dislocation of the medial meniscus [PDF]
We present the first reported case of symptomatic medial dislocation of the medial meniscus in a patient who had no previous history of trauma and who had an otherwise normal knee. The treatment of instability of the medial meniscus is controversial and studies have indicated that certain individuals without a firm meniscal bony insertion may be ...
