Lateral Capsular Fixation: An Implant-Free Technique to Prevent Meniscal Allograft Extrusion

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, 2017
Although several surgical techniques have been described to perform meniscal allograft transplantation with good clinical results and although different methods of capsular stabilization can be found in the literature, there is no standard surgical ...

Quantitative morphology of the subchondral plate of the tibial plateau [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
The object of the present investigation was to measure the thickness distribution of the subchondral plate of the tibial plateau. The data were obtained by computerised image analysis of serial sections.

Knee moments of anterior cruciate ligament reconstructed and control participants during normal and inclined walking [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Objectives: Prior injury to the knee, particularly anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury, is known to predispose one to premature osteoarthritis (OA).

The Influence of Obesity and Meniscal Coverage on In Vivo Tibial Cartilage Thickness and Strain

open access: yesOrthopaedic Journal of Sports Medicine, 2020
Background: Obesity, which potentially increases loading at the knee, is a common and modifiable risk factor for the development of knee osteoarthritis. The menisci play an important role in distributing joint loads to the underlying cartilage.

Optimizing biophysical properties of cellular niches to enhance stem cell‐derived extracellular vesicle function in musculoskeletal regeneration

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived from stem cells show promise for applications in regenerative medicine, but their scalability and yield remain challenges. This review explores the approaches for biophysical modulations within cell niches on EV properties, discusses the current clinical application of EVs, and provides an outlook on the existing ...

A rare case of symptomatic nonunion of avulsion fracture of the posterior medial meniscus root with concomitant posterior cruciate ligament injury

open access: yesJournal of Medical Sciences, 2021
The menisci are the essential structures of the knee joint because they disperse body weight and reduce friction during the movement. An avulsion fracture of the posterior medial meniscus root, also known as meniscal ossicles, can lead to meniscal ...

In vivo kinematics of medial unicompartmental osteoarthritic knees during activities of daily living [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Few studies exist describing unicompartmental osteoarthritic knee kinematics. Moreover, the role of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) in the determination of knee kinematics has not been fully described.

Biomechanical Performance of Menisci under Cyclic Loads

open access: yes, 2021
The meniscus, composed of fibrocartilage, is a very important part of the human knee joint that behaves like a buffer. Located in the middle of the femoral condyles and the tibial plateau, it is a necessary structure to maintain normal biomechanical ...

USP7 Regulates TRPV1 Deubiquitination to Mediate Chondrocyte Ferroptosis and Alleviate Osteoarthritis

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common degenerative joint disease characterized by chondrocyte dysfunction. In this study, we explored the function and mechanism of ubiquitin‐specific protease 7 (USP7) in chondrocyte ferroptosis in OA. The USP7, TRPV1, collagen II, and GPX4 levels in knee joint tissue were detected using immunohistochemistry ...

MRI laxity assessment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Knee laxity, by definition, is a dynamic and multifactorial condition. MRI evaluation, due to its known capacity in achieving high soft tissue contrast (e.g., meniscus, synovia, ligaments, cartilage) and multiplanar joint assessment without ionizing ...
