During arthroscopy, the presence of associated meniscus lesions was documented by systematically inspecting the anterior and posterior tibiofemoral compartments. With a special focus on MM ramp lesions and LM root tears, groups of different injury tear patterns were formed. Chi-square tests were used ...
1.4 years. medial meniscus posterior root repair was associated with a statistically significant improvement in lysholm (p < 0.0001) and sf-12 physical component scores (p < 0.0001), while marx (p = 0.160) and sf-12 mental component scores (p = 0.283) failed to demonstrate statistically ...
The medial perimeniscal synovium is the thin fringe of synovium covering the attachment of joint capsule along the periphery of medial meniscus. Three aspects of increasing intensity of synovial macroscopic abnormalities have been defined by Watanabe et al.26. Normal synovium involves few translucent an...
Main lesions involved medial compartment of knee and lateral compartment with normal to mild lesions of lateral meniscus and articular cartilage, amenable to treatment via partial meniscectomy or observation. The inclusion and exclusion criteria were as follows: 2.1. Inclusion criteria 2.2. Exclusion ...
The key difference between medial and lateral meniscus tear is that medial meniscus tear occurs on the inner side of the knee joint, while lateral meniscus
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...
A large cartilage lesion of the tibial plateau with a deficient meniscus in a young patient is a challenging pathology for the orthopaedic surgeon due to the limited options available. While hemiarthroplasty procedures can be an option, the risk of revision in a young patient is high, and theref...
To compare the differences with respect to clinical and graft survivorship and patient-reported outcomes (PROs) between lateral (LMAT) and medial (MMAT) meniscus allograft transplantation.#Patients having a primary MAT between 1998 and 2016 were enrolled. The inclusion criteria were (1) patients ...
knee; medial meniscus root tear; affecting factors; artificial intelligence; predicting performance1. Introduction Osteoarthritis (OA) is an important burden to the healthcare system because it has a higher prevalence with increasing age. The knee joint is the most common site affected by OA. It ...
