Meniscus gene expression profiling of inner and outer zone meniscus tissue compared to cartilage and passaged monolayer meniscus cells [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
Meniscus injuries are common and while surgical strategies have improved, there is a need for alternative therapeutics to improve long-term outcomes and prevent post-traumatic osteoarthritis.

Meniscus-Induced Directional Self-Transport of Submerged Bubbles on a Slippery Oil-Infused Pillar Array with Height-Gradient [PDF]

open access: yes
Directional manipulation of submerged bubbles is fundamental for both theoretical research and industrial production. However, most current strategies are limited to the upward motion direction, complex surface topography, and additional apparatuses ...

Meniscus-on-Demand Parallel 3D Nanoprinting [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Exploiting a femtoliter liquid meniscus formed on a nanopipet is a powerful approach to spatially control mass transfer or chemical reaction at the nanoscale.

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

open access: yesPLoS 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.

Meniscus repair and centralization: Preserving meniscus function

open access: yesJournal 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.

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

open access: yesArthroscopy 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

Mechanobiology of the meniscus [PDF]

open access: yesJournal 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.

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

open access: yesJournal 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 ...

Meniscus tear surgery and meniscus replacement [PDF]

open access: yesMuscles, 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.

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

open access: yesBone & 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 ...
