This is one of the most common types of tears. About28% of all medial meniscus tears fall into this category. These tears run perpendicular to both the tibia and the long axis of fibers in the meniscus. This means they can put increased pressure on the joint by disrupting the structure t...
MRI is the study of choice to evaluate meniscus tears. Initial treatments include ice, elevation, NSAIDs, and bracing. Simple tears and those in the outer portion of the meniscus, referred to as the vascularized “red zone,” have greater healing potential. In older athletes and in the ...
However, the measurement and significance of MR T2 value for knee meniscus have not been well established. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether the MR T2 values in the diverse zones of the posterior horn of the knee meniscus differ between sexes in a young healthy population....

It had some simi- larity to the Oxford design, but the meniscus/ menisci were supported by a central stud or sepa- rate grooves on the tibial component to reduce the risk for dislocation. Insall and associates developed the Total Condylar prosthesis (Howmedica, Rutherford, NJ) at the ...
Reduced knee weight-bearing from prescription or sedentary lifestyles are associated with cartilage degradation; effects on the meniscus are unclear. Rodents exposed to spaceflight or hind limb unloading (HLU) represent unique opportunities to evaluate this question. This study evaluated arthritic changes ...
Furthermore, a few observations of solitary Fe+ cells were also made in adipose, the germinal zone of epiphyseal plate, cruciate ligaments, and in meniscus tissues in some of the animals. Negative controls showed no staining (Figures 11, 12, and 13). Discussion The results obtained in this ...
is a chronic degenerative disease characterized by the progressive deterioration to articular cartilage, which subsequently impacts the subchondral bone and synovial structure. this degeneration manifested as synovitis, cartilage loss, osteophyte formation, meniscus injury, and degradation of tendons and ...
Anterior cruciate ligament and residue meniscus was dissected, and patella tendon was released. Femur osteotomy with a valgus cut of 6° was performed with protection of both lateral and medial collateral ligaments. Tibia osteotomy was performed with a posterior tilt cut of 3° after dissection of...
