Meniscus Root Tear: Extended Classification and Arthroscopic Repair Techniques
The meniscus root is an attachment of the anterior and posterior horns of the meniscus onto the tibia, and its primary function is to prevent extrusion under axial load. Meniscus root tear constitutes 15% to 20% of meniscus tear.

An Anomalous Attachment of the Medial Meniscus Posterior and Anterior Roots Mimicking a Bucket Handle Meniscus Tear: A Case Report and Review of the Literature. [PDF]
Introduction: Anomalous medial menisci are rare entities compared to their lateral counterparts. These anomalies include atypical insertions, most commonly into the anterior cruciate ligament, and discoid variants among others.

Meniscus tear surgery and meniscus replacement [PDF]
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.
