Bilateral Discoid Medial Menisci
Summary: This article adds 2 more cases of bilateral discoid medial menisci to the previously reported 9 cases. The radiographs of the first case revealed bilateral cupping of the medial tibial plateaus and a small lytic lesion of the left distal medial femoral metaphysis. Beside the posteriorly unstable incomplete type discoid medial

Propriedades mecânicas de meniscos frescos de coelhos e preservados em glicerina 98% Mechanical properties of the fresh rabbit menisci and of the menisci preserved in glycerin 98% [PDF]
O presente estudo avaliou a resistência à compressão de meniscos mediais de coelhos da raça Nova Zelândia, por meio de teste mecânico de compressão. Trinta meniscos foram distribuídos em três grupos: grupo MF, composto por dez meniscos frescos; grupo MG,

Multiple Cases of Discoid Menisci within a Family: A Case Report and Literature Review [PDF]
Discoid menisci are thought to be heritable. However, few documented cases of this occurring within families exist. We present the case of siblings with lateral discoid menisci, documented by knee magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), reinforcing the case ...

Cysts of the menisci of the knee [PDF]
Summary A review of a series of 249 consecutive meniscectomies reveals an overall incidence of cysts of the menisci of 20%. Trauma in younger patients, and degeneration in older patients, appear to be causal factors.

The glycosaminoglycans of canine menisci [PDF]
The semilunar menisci of the knee have an important mechanical function and are commonly involved in joint degeneration. However, previously published analyses of the compositions of normal and degenerate human menisci vary widely. In the present study the glycosaminoglycan content and composition of selected areas of the menisci of eight normal knees ...

The menisci of the knees are semicircular fibrocartilaginous structures consisting of a hydrophilic extracellular matrix containing a network of collagen fibers, glycoproteins, and proteoglycans maintained by a cellular component. The menisci are responsible for more than 50% of load transmission across the knee and increase joint congruity thereby ...
