Considering the importance of meniscal integrity for overall joint health, a complete understanding of the relevant anatomy, biology, and biomechanics of the menisci is necessary for the proper treatment of this critical structure. This chapter provides readers with insight into the (1) pertinent ...
After division of the cruciate ligaments and one meniscus in the knee joint of the rabbit, degenerative changes were observed in both the articular cartilage and bone. This was more apparent on the tibial plateau in which the meniscus had been removed, progressive changes occurring from 3 to 16...
The role of the meniscus in the anterior-posterior stability of the loaded anterior cruciate-deficient knee. Effects of partial versus total excision. The effects of progressive removal of the menisci on the anterior-posterior force-versus-displacement response of the anterior cruciate-deficient knee ...
The following conclusions may be made: The intact menisci transmit 70-99% of the total load acting on the joint. Degenerate menisci and menisci with different tears still transmit significant fractions of the load acting on the corresponding side of the meniscus so long as the circumferential ...

Tremendous studies have been done and many parameters such as withdrawal speed, solvent type and solution concentration have been ...
CCN4 (cellular communication network factor 4), a highly conserved, secreted cysteine-rich matricellular protein is emerging as a key player in the development and progression of numerous disease pathologies, including cancer, fibrosis, metabolic and inf
2). The pillars are placed on a regular triangular lattice to limit the number of the meniscus that can simultaneously invade into a pore to two menisci and retain the crucial aspect of cooperative pore filling59,60. The pillars have a diameter of 0.4 mm, and the width of the pore ...
