Anatomical Knee Variants in Discoid Lateral Meniscal Tears
BACKGROUND Discoid lateral meniscus was a common meniscal dysplasia and was predisposed to tear. There were some anatomical knee variants in patients with discoid lateral meniscus. The aim of this study was to analyze the relationship between anatomical knee variants and discoid lateral meniscal tears. METHODS There were totally 125 cases of discoid lateral meniscus enrolled in this study fro...
متن کاملPosterior Lateral Meniscal Root Tears and Meniscal Repair
Meniscal repair indications have not really changed in recent years. Typically younger, more active patients with concomitant ACL reconstruction and peripheral third vertical tears continue to be the “best” repair candidates. However, even in these “ideal” candidates, meniscal repair continues to represent a significant challenge. While most will not dispute that vertical tears greater than 1 c...
متن کاملDiscoid lateral meniscus tears and concomitant articular cartilage lesions in the knee.
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to investigate the relation between isolated discoid lateral meniscus (DLM) tears and the presence of articular cartilage lesions. METHODS From January 2010 to January 2012, 252 consecutive patients diagnosed with an isolated DLM tear during an arthroscopic procedure were included in this study. Demographic variables, including gender, age, body mass inde...
متن کاملExtra-articular Mimickers of Lateral Meniscal Tears
CONTEXT Lateral meniscus tears are a common entity seen in sports medicine. Although lateral-side knee pain is often the result of a meniscus injury, several extra-articular pathologies share signs and symptoms with a meniscus tear. It is critical for the clinician to be able to identify and understand extra-articular pathologies that can present similar to a lateral meniscus tear. EVIDENCE A...
متن کاملMeniscal tears
The menisci are two semilunar-shaped fibrocartilagenous structures, which are interposed between the femoral condyles and tibial plateaux. They have an important role in knee function. Long-term follow-up studies showed that virtually all meniscectomized knees develop arthritic changes with time. The meniscus has functions in load bearing, load transmission, shock absorption, joint stability, j...
