Anatomical and Morphological Variations of Menisci with Relation to the Anterior Cruciate Ligament Tibial Insertion and its Clinical Significance: A Human Cadaveric Study

open access: yesJournal of the Anatomical Society of India
Background: The knee joint is highly prone to injury, particularly involving the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and menisci. Anatomical variations in meniscal morphology and their relationship to the ACL tibial insertion (ACLTI) and tibial plateau may influence injury patterns and surgical outcomes. This study

MRI comparison of injury mechanism and anatomical factors between sexes in non-contact anterior cruciate ligament injuries.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
Non-contact anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture is mostly caused by a pivot shift mechanism including valgus collapse and internal tibial rotation. In female athletes, the incidence of ACL rupture has been reported to be significantly higher than in

Displacements of the menisci under joint load: An in vitro study in human knees [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
The purpose of this study was to test whether the menisci displace under joint compression combined with internal-external torques and anterior-posterior forces at fixed flexion angles.

Posterior Tibial Slope Is Not Correlated With Meniscal Tears in Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction

open access: yesArthroscopy, Sports Medicine, and Rehabilitation
Purpose: To evaluate the impact of the tibial slope on the severity and location of meniscal tears in patients presenting with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture. Methods: We conducted a single-center retrospective observational study.

Tibial Torsion Among Filipinos: A Cadaveric Study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Tibial torsion, the twisting of the tibia about its long axis, can affect rotational positioning in total knee replacement. This angle varies depending on the ethnicity of the subject.

Simplified Arthroscopic Lateral Meniscal Root Repair Involving the Use of 2 Cinch-Loop Sutures

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, 2017
The meniscal root attachments are critical for meniscal function by securing the menisci in place and allowing optimal shock absorption in the knee. Successful meniscal root repair has been shown to restore the knee's tibiofemoral contact pressure to the

Revision 1 Size and position of the healthy meniscus, and its Correlation with sex, height, weight, and bone area- a cross-sectional study

open access: yesBMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2011
Background Meniscus extrusion or hypertrophy may occur in knee osteoarthritis (OA). However, currently no data are available on the position and size of the meniscus in asymptomatic men and women with normal meniscus integrity.

Avulsion of the tibial tuberosity with a lateral plateau rim fracture: case report

open access: yes, 2002
An avulsion fracture of tibial tuberosity with an unusual articular involvement was treated with open reduction and internal fixation. Although the mechanism of tibial tuberosity fracture is described as passively flexing the knee while active quadriceps

The sensitivity of tibio-femoral contact to parameters describing the geometry of the lateral and medial menisci

open access: yes, 2001
The sensitivity of contact variables of the tibial plateau to the transverse depth, transverse width, cross-sectional height and cross-sectional width of both menisci was investigated.
