A current insight into Human Knee Menisci [PDF]
Menisci of the knee are semilunar-shaped structures located between the condyles of the femur and tibia, together with articular surfaces of the tibial condyles form the acetabulum of the knee joint.

ENHANCING BIOCHEMICAL, STRUCTURAL, MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF TISSUE-ENGINEERED MENISCI AND ENTHESES USING BIOCHEMICAL AND BIOMECHANICAL STIMULI [PDF]
165 pagesMenisci exist between the femoral condyle and tibial plateau in the knee joint and play important roles, such as load transmission, shock absorption, lubrication, and stability of the knee joint.

Arthroscopic Medial Meniscus Posterior Root Reconstruction Using Auto-Gracilis Tendon
There have been several techniques to repair the medial meniscus posterior root tears (MMPRTs) with the goal of restoring the anatomic and firm fixation of the meniscal root to bone.

Structure-Function relationships of equine menisci. [PDF]
Meniscal pathologies are among the most common injuries of the femorotibial joint in both human and equine patients. Pathological forces and ensuing injuries of the cranial horn of the equine medial meniscus are considered analogous to those observed in ...

Femoro-tibial and menisco-tibial translation patterns in patients with unilateral anterior cruciate ligament deficiency-a potential cause secondary meniscal tears. [PDF]
Objective: To analyze menisco-tibial and femoro-tibial translation patterns in healthy and ACL-deficient knees in different knee flexion angles under muscle activity. Methods: The ACL-deficient and contralateral healthy knees of 10 patients were examined

Osteoarthritis of the Anterior Cruciate Ligament and Medial Tibial Plateau: A Cadaveric Study [PDF]
The objective of this study was to analyze morphometric anatomy and damages with aging in cadaveric knee specimens specific to the cruciate ligaments, the articular cartilage of the tibial plateau, and the menisci.

Proximal tibial open wedge osteotomy (PTO) is a corrective operation used in the surgery of lower extremities and is applied to patients with varus deformities for sufficient correction. The aim of the study was to evaluate whether the PTO can achieve decreased stress-bearing on the tibia and tarsal bones in addition to correcting the mechanical axis ...
