Mechanobiology of the meniscus [PDF]
Journal of Biomechanics, 2015 The meniscus plays a critical biomechanical role in the knee, providing load support, joint stability, and congruity. Importantly, growing evidence indicates that the mechanobiologic response of meniscal cells plays a critical role in the physiologic, pathologic, and repair responses of the meniscus.

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.

Journal of Children's Orthopaedics, 2007 Discoid lateral meniscus is an intra-articular knee disorder typically presented in the young population and during adolescence. Different types of meniscal disorders and varied forms of presentation have been reported. The natural history depends on the type of anomaly and the presence of symptoms. Management of the disorder should be directed toward

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

Annals of Joint, 2022 We are proud to introduce this special series for Annals of Joint dedicated exclusively to the lateral meniscus, from its anatomy and biomechanics to its most complex surgical procedures. But why focus on a such restricted topic and not explore the whole meniscal knowledge?

Meniscus-derived matrix scafolds promote the integrative repair of meniscal defects [PDF]
, 2019 Meniscal tears have a poor healing capacity, and damage to the meniscus is associated with significant pain, disability, and progressive degenerative changes in the knee joint that lead to osteoarthritis.

A Technique of Improved Medial Meniscus Visualization by Anterior Cruciate Ligament Graft Placement in Chronic Anterior Cruciate Deficient Knees [PDF]
, 2016 It is customary to perform medial meniscus repair before anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) graft placement when undertaken as a combined procedure. However, in chronic ACL-deficient knees, intraoperative anterior tibiofemoral translation can cause the ...
