Anatomical Insights into the Lateral Meniscus and Anterolateral Ligament: A Cadaveric Study [PDF]

Diagnostics
Background/Objectives: This study aims to describe in detail the previously reported close relationship between the anterolateral ligament (ALL) and the lateral meniscus. Few previous studies identified and characterized this relation. This study further

Quantifying the differential functional behavior between the medial and lateral meniscus after posterior meniscus root tears

PLoS ONE, 2021
Meniscus tears of the knee are among the most common orthopedic knee injury. Specifically, tears of the posterior root can result in abnormal meniscal extrusion leading to decreased function and progressive osteoarthritis.

Repair Technique for Displaced Meniscal Flap Tears Indicated by MRI Comma Sign

Arthroscopy Techniques, 2022
The meniscus comma sign has been described for displaced flap tears of the meniscus. These meniscus tears are displaced into the tibia or femoral recesses and can be often difficult to diagnose intraoperatively. We describe the technique of diagnosis and

Meniscus repair and centralization: Preserving meniscus function

Journal of Joint Surgery and Research, 2023
Purpose: Meniscus injury and meniscus extrusion cause meniscus dysfunction, which then leads to the initiation and progression of knee osteoarthritis.

Meniscus transplantation [PDF]

Current Reviews in Musculoskeletal Medicine, 2015
Understanding the structure and function of the meniscus is critical to understanding its role in overall knee joint function. Injury to, or removal of, meniscal tissue may be associated with articular cartilage wear, knee instability, and, ultimately, the progression of osteoarthritis. While every effort is made for preserving and/or repairing damaged

MR- arthrography: anatomic variant from link between lateral meniscus and anterior and posterior cruciate ligaments. A case report and review of the literature

Radiology Case Reports, 2021
Menisci congenital anomalies are rare morphologic abnormalities including accessory meniscus, discoid meniscus, double-layered meniscus, hypoplastic meniscus and ring-shaped meniscus (RSM). In a 35 year-old male patient, MR arthrography showed a bridging

Silencing of NOTCH3 Signaling in Meniscus Smooth Muscle Cells Inhibits Fibrosis and Exacerbates Degeneration in a HEYL‐Dependent Manner

Advanced Science, 2023
The mechanisms of meniscus fibrosis and novel ways to enhance fibrosis is unclear. This work reveals human meniscus fibrosis initiated at E24 weeks. Smooth muscle cell cluster is identified in embryonic meniscus, and the combined analysis with previous ...

Autologous meniscus fragments embedded in atelocollagen gel enhance meniscus repair in a rabbit model

Bone & Joint Research, 2021
Aims: Meniscal injuries are common and often induce knee pain requiring surgical intervention. To develop effective strategies for meniscus regeneration, we hypothesized that a minced meniscus embedded in an atelocollagen gel, a firm gel-like material ...

Automatic Meniscus Segmentation Using Adversarial Learning-Based Segmentation Network with Object-Aware Map in Knee MR Images

Diagnostics, 2021
Meniscus segmentation from knee MR images is an essential step when analyzing the length, width, height, cross-sectional area, surface area for meniscus allograft transplantation using a 3D reconstruction model based on the patient’s normal meniscus.
