A Tale of Two Loads: Modulation of IL-1 Induced Inflammatory Responses of Meniscal Cells in Two Models of Dynamic Physiologic Loading

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2022
Meniscus injuries are highly prevalent, and both meniscus injury and subsequent surgery are linked to the development of post-traumatic osteoarthritis (PTOA).

Meniscus tear surgery and meniscus replacement [PDF]

Muscles, Ligaments and Tendons Journal, 2016
the menisci are easily injured and difficult to repair. The aim of this study was to analyze the current state of meniscal surgery aimed at preserving morphology and conserving the biomechanics of the knee to prevent joint degeneration.a search of the electronic medical literature database Medline was conducted, from http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed.

Identification and validation of pivotal genes related to age-related meniscus degeneration based on gene expression profiling analysis and in vivo and in vitro models detection

BMC Medical Genomics, 2021
Background The componential and structural change in the meniscus with aging would increase the tissue vulnerability of the meniscus, which would induce meniscus tearing.

Current state of off the shelf scaffolds and implants for meniscal replacement

Journal of Cartilage & Joint Preservation, 2022
Partial meniscectomy has been a mainstay of treatment for mechanical symptoms of meniscal tear for decades. Yet, clear changes in load distribution have been reported after loss of meniscal integrity and degenerative changes have been seen after these ...

Double-Layered Lateral Meniscus in an 8-Year-Old Child: Report of a Rare Case

Case Reports in Orthopedics, 2016
Reports of congenital abnormalities of the lateral meniscus include discoid meniscus, accessory meniscus, double-layered meniscus, and ring-shaped meniscus. Particularly, only a few cases of double-layered meniscus have been reported. We report a case of

An anatomically shaped medial meniscus prosthesis is able to partially restore the contact mechanics of the meniscectomized knee joint

Journal of Experimental Orthopaedics, 2022
Purpose The aim of this study was to determine whether a flexible medial meniscus prosthesis is more capable of sharing loads with the direct tibiofemoral cartilage contact than the stiffer first‐generation prosthesis.

Anterior Segment Optical Coherence Tomography for Tear Meniscus Evaluation and its Correlation with other Tear Variables in Healthy Individuals [PDF]

Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2016
Introduction: Dry eye is one of the most common ocular diseases in this cyber era. Despite availability of multiple tests, no single test is accurate for the diagnosis of dry eye. Anterior segment optical coherence tomography is the recent tool which

Augmentation of the Pullout Repair of a Medial Meniscus Posterior Root Tear by Arthroscopic Centralization

Arthroscopy Techniques, 2017
The meniscus roots are critical for meniscus function in preserving correct knee kinematics and avoiding meniscus extrusion and, consequently, in the progression of osteoarthritis.
