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

Role of mesenchymal stem cells in meniscal repair
Journal of Experimental Orthopaedics, 2014 Meniscus integrity is the key for joint health of the knee. Therefore, the main goal of every meniscus treatment should be the maintenance of as much meniscus tissue as possible. Repair of meniscus tears can be achieved by meniscus suture.

Acta Orthopaedica et Traumatologica Turcica, 2018 In symptomatic discoid medial meniscus, partial meniscectomy is the principal treatment method and can yield promising short-term results. However, unlike the nondiscoid meniscus, discoid medial meniscus is frequently associated with horizontal cleavage ...
