Aim of the work Injury to the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is frequently accompanied by
tears of the menisci. Some of these tears occur at the time of injury, but others develop over …

Purpose Bone morphological factors are important for menisci. Their association with medial
meniscus posterior root tears, however, has not yet been studied. This study aimed to …

Purpose To evaluate the available literature on the relationship between knee bony
morphology and medial meniscus posterior root tears (MMPRTs) to determine which …

The knee is a complex joint with its function dependent on a combination of osseous and
soft tissue structures. Alteration in the relationship of these tissues, due to either acute or …

Purpose Contralateral medial meniscus posterior root tear (MMPRT) can sometimes occur
after primary surgeries for MMPRT and lead to unsatisfactory outcomes. The incidence rate …

Background Medial meniscus (MM) tears are associated with both acute and chronic
anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) insufficiency and can lead to degenerative changes in the …

Background: The lateral meniscus is a unique structure of the knee joint, and its anatomy,
function, pathological process, and treatment are distinct from those of the medial meniscus …

Objectives: Morphological features of the distal femur and proximal tibia associated with
cartilage degeneration are unknown. This study aimed to elucidate local anatomical …

Purpose The study aimed to investigate whether morphometric variables of the knee can
predict isolated meniscal bucket-handle tears and identify the risk factors. Methods The …

Background Meniscus extrusion is a serious and relatively frequent clinical problem. For this
reason the role of different risk factors for this pathology is still the subject of debate. The …
