Meniscal tears are common injuries in sports and their surgical treatment is one of the most performed procedures in orthopaedic surgery. The comprehension of the normal and pathological biomechanics of meniscus is mandatory to fully address this kind of injury and restore the native behaviour of the knee joint. This chapter provides an overview of the

Arthroscopic Meniscus Repair: Meniscus Arrow [PDF]
, 2001 The Meniscus Arrow (Bionx Implants, Inc., Blue Bell, PA) provides a new solution for the surgical resolution to the problem of meniscal repairs. The Meniscus Arrow is a T-shaped fastener that provides an all-inside technique for repair of longitudinal meniscal tears in the vascular zone through standard arthroscopic portals.

Harnessing electrospun nanofibers to recapitulate hierarchical fibrous structures of meniscus.
Journal of Biomedical Materials Research. Part B - Applied biomaterials, 2020The meniscus has complex biomechanical functions endowed by the hierarchical fibrous structure of its extracellular matrix (ECM), which plays a central role in protecting the knee joint. However, it is challenging to recapitulate the ECM structure of the

Extrusion of the medial meniscus
Arthroscopy: The Journal of Arthroscopic & Related Surgery, 1991Disruption of the anchoring points of the menisci of the knee has been hypothesized to result in subluxation of the affected meniscus from the articular surface. A case report of such an extrusion of the medial meniscus is presented. Medial subluxation of the meniscus from the tibiofemoral articulation occurred as a result of avulsion of the posterior ...

The rationale and technique for surgical repair of the meniscus of the knee are presented with a report of the results in ten cases. Contraindications to meniscus reapir include peripheral vascular disease, metabolic disorders disrupting collagen synthesis, renal disease, and "collagen-vascular" disorders.

Replacement of the meniscus cartilage presents challenges not easily met by the application of technology or transplantation biology. No studies have demonstrated definitely that there are benefits to a replaced meniscus. Regeneration of the body's own meniscus cartilage may be successful, but confirmation of this phenomenon awaits further data.

41. Meniscus und Instabilit�t [PDF]
Langenbecks Archiv f�r Chirurgie, 1987 The meniscus acts as a shock absorber and resists against sagittal and rotational forces. The function is similar to the anterior cruciate ligament. The function of the meniscus is similar to that of the anterior cruciate ligament, ruptures of the ligament are often connected with meniscal tears.

ARTHROGRAPHY OF THE LATERAL MENISCUS
American Journal of Roentgenology, 1974Double contrast knee arthrography is very accurate in the diagnosis of lateral meniscal tears.Forty-eight of our 53 surgically proven lateral meniscal tears were diagnosed arthrographically with no false positives. The frequency of bilateral tears in our series was 10 per cent, but of those with lateral meniscal tears, 18 of 53 had medial tears.

Discoid meniscus is uncommon and usually affects the lateral meniscus. We present 16 patients (8 male and 6 female) with tears of a discoid lateral meniscus occurring in 1800 arthroscopies. We carried out an arthroscopic partial meniscectomy leaving an intact peripheral rim. This is biomechanically satisfactory and the early results are encouraging.
