Medial meniscus (MM) tears are associated with both acute and chronic anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) insufficiency and can lead to degenerative changes in the knee. ACL reconstruction (ACLR) combined with the meniscal repair was reported to result in decreased anterior knee joint laxity with evidence of improved patient-reported outcomes in the long ...

BACKGROUND Posterior meniscal root avulsions can cause meniscal extrusion, joint space narrowing, and progressive knee arthritis. Iatrogenic posterior meniscal root avulsions after malpositioning of the transtibial tunnels during anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction can account for poor long-term outcomes seen in some patients following ACL ...

Gait recovery is not associated with meniscus and/or knee ligament injuries following lateral tibial plateau fractures. A prospective 3-year cohort study of 56 patients [PDF]
Though associated meniscus and/or knee ligament injuries following lateral tibial plateau fractures (TPF) are common, the importance of development in gait recovery is unknown. This study aim to report the 12- and 36-month gait recovery in patients with lateral TPF divided into two groups presenting with and without associated meniscus and/or knee ...

Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury is one of the causes for post-traumatic knee osteoarthritis (OA), and ACL reconstruction surgery is reportedly unable to prevent OA development. In early-stage knee OA, medial meniscus extrusion (MME) is closely correlated with tibial medial osteophyte width, which consists of bone and cartilage -parts.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to analyze the effect of tibial tunnel positioning in single bundle and double bundle ACL reconstructions on lateral meniscus anterior root. Materials: Twelve single knee cadavers were used, 6 for a single bundle ACL reconstruction, which were reamed gradually starting from 8 mm, 9 mm and ended with a 10 mm ...

Introduction: The medial collateral ligament (MCL) is the most commonly injured ligament of the knee joint; however, its displacement into the medial knee compartment is rare. Traumatic posterior root of medial meniscus (PRMM) tears are commonly found in high-grade injuries involving anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) or posterior cruciate ligament (PCL)

Objectives: Increased posterior tibial slope (PTS) is a known risk factor for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury and incidence of concomitant meniscal tears. However, the impact of PTS on the severity of concomitant meniscal injury has not been investigated.

Biomechanical analysis of medial tibial cartilage by 7T magnetic resonance imaging and digital volume correlation: a preliminary study of variations caused meniscus ramp lesions [PDF]
Background The objective study was to compare medial tibial stress variations in three different situations: (1) on native knees, (2) after performing medial meniscus ramp lesions then (3) after their arthroscopic treatments with all-inside suture or ...
