Cysts of the menisci of the knee [PDF]
Postgraduate Medical Journal, 1972 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]
Biochemical Journal, 1981 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 ...

Analysis of degradation failure of poly Llactic acid fixators used in meniscus tears
Acta Orthopaedica et Traumatologica Turcica, 2020 Objectives: Biodegradable poly L-lactic acid (PLLA) fixators used in the repair of meniscal tears may cause adverse reactions inside the knee due to delayed degradation.

Meniscal Dimensions and its Clinical Implications- A Foetal Cadaveric Study
International Journal of Anatomy Radiology and Surgery, 2022 Introduction: The menisci are made up of fibrocartilage. The menisci are prone for injuries and treated by meniscal repair, meniscectomy and the meniscal allograft transplantation.

CARTILAGE, 2016 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 ...

Morphological Study of Menisci of Knee Joint in Human Cadavers
International Journal of Anatomy Radiology and Surgery, 2018 Introduction: Menisci are fibrocartilaginous discs present in between femur and tibia in knee joint. These are prone to damage and as being weight bearing structures; they are commonly replaced once injured, by arthroscopic or open procedure.
