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 ...

Meniscus Injuries Alter the Kinematics of Knees With Anterior Cruciate Ligament Deficiency
Background: Most knee joint biomechanics studies have involved knees with an isolated anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury. However, a large portion of patients with injured ACLs have accompanied meniscus tearing. In this study, the in vivo alteration

Morphometric characteristics of the knee are associated with the injury of the meniscus
Background To assess the geometrical risk factors for meniscal injuries. We hypothesized that the narrowness of the intercondylar notch and the smaller tibial spine could increase the risk of meniscal injuries.

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 ...

GROWTH OF THE PEDIATRIC KNEE MENISCUS: A CADAVERIC STUDY
Background: The menisci of the knee play a critical role in maintaining structural integrity, as well as in load bearing and shock absorption. In adolescent patients, meniscal tear is a very common sports injury, and is frequently associated with ...

Medial Meniscus Posterior Root Tear Repair Using a 2-Simple-Suture Pullout Technique
Medial meniscus posterior root tear is one of the underestimated knee injuries in terms of incidence. Despite its grave sequelae, using simple but effective technique can maintain the native knee joint longevity.
