Common mistakes and pitfalls in magnetic resonance imaging of the knee [PDF]
, 2016 This pictorial review presents an overview of common interpretation errors and pitfalls in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the knee. Instead of being exhaustive, we will emphasize those pitfalls that are most commonly encountered by young residents ...

Medial and lateral discoid menisci: a case report
Sports Medicine, Arthroscopy, Rehabilitation, Therapy & Technology, 2010 Discoid menisci on both medial and lateral tibial plateau are very rare abnormalities. We report a 44-year-old woman with bilateral medial and lateral discoid menisci.

Medial and Lateral Meniscus Posterior Root Tears with an Intact Anterior Cruciate Ligament
Case Reports in Orthopedics, 2020 Background. Medial meniscus (MM) posterior root tear (PRT) is often caused by meniscal degeneration, whereas lateral meniscus (LM) PRT is mainly caused by trauma, especially trauma associated with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries. Although there

Immature articular cartilage and subchondral bone covered by menisci are potentially susceptive to mechanical load [PDF]
, 2014 BACKGROUND: The differences of mechanical and histological properties between cartilage covered by menisci and uncovered by menisci may contribute to the osteoarthritis after meniscectomy and these differences are not fully understood.

Meniscus-derived matrix scafolds promote the integrative repair of meniscal defects [PDF]
, 2019 Meniscal tears have a poor healing capacity, and damage to the meniscus is associated with significant pain, disability, and progressive degenerative changes in the knee joint that lead to osteoarthritis.

Early Osteoarthritis After Untreated Anterior Meniscal Root Tears: An In Vivo Animal Study
Orthopaedic Journal of Sports Medicine, 2017 Background: Meniscal root tears cause menisci and their insertions to inadequately distribute loads and potentially leave underlying articular cartilage unprotected.

A Porcine Animal Model for Early Meniscal Degeneration - Analysis of Histology, Gene Expression and Magnetic Resonance Imaging Six Months after Resection of the Anterior Cruciate Ligament. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 The menisci of the mammalian knee joint balance the incongruence between femoral condyle and tibial plateau and thus menisci absorb and distribute high loads. Degeneration processes of the menisci lead to pain syndromes in the knee joint.

Modeling of the condyle elements within a biomechanical knee model [PDF]
, 2012 The development of a computational multibody knee model able to capture some of the fundamental properties of the human knee articulation is presented. This desideratum is reached by including the kinetics of the real knee articulation.

Bone bruise of the knee associated with the lesions of anterior cruciate ligament and menisci on magnetic resonance imaging [PDF]
, 2011 Background/Aim. Bone bruise is a common finding in acutely injured knee examined by magnetic resonance (MR). The aim of the study was to determine the association of bone bruise frequency with postinjury lesions of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and
