BACKGROUND Unstable meniscal tears are rare injuries in skeletally immature patients. Loss of a meniscus increases the risk of subsequent development of degenerative changes in the knee. This study deals with the outcome of intraarticular meniscal repair and factors that affect healing. Parameters of interest were type and location of the tear and also the influence of simultaneous reconstructi...
OBJECTIVE To assess if arthroscopic partial meniscectomy (APM) is superior to placebo surgery in the treatment of patients with degenerative tear of the medial meniscus. METHODS In this multicentre, randomised, participant-blinded and outcome assessor-blinded, placebo-surgery controlled trial, 146 adults, aged 35-65 years, with knee symptoms consistent with degenerative medial meniscus tear a...
Patients: 80 patients (mean age, 29 y; 80% men) who had arthroscopic confirmation of complete rupture of the ACL, objective anterolateral rotatory instability (a positive result on the Lachman and pivot-shift tests), and loss of stability prompting giving-way of the knee joint. Other inclusion criteria were no previous or simultaneous intra-articular surgical procedure, no cartilage deteriorati...
PURPOSE To evaluate the incidence of associated injuries and meniscal tears in children and adolescents with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tears, we performed a retrospective review of patients, age 14 and younger, who were treated surgically at our institution. TYPE OF STUDY Retrospective review. METHODS We reviewed 39 patients (30 girls, 9 boys) with an average age of 13.6 years (range...
Introduction Preclinical drug development in the area of osteoarthritis (OA) requires robust and reliable assessment of disease progression. The morphology of the articular cartilage is considered to be the primary marker of OA progression. However, the challenges of small animal in-vivo imaging and image analysis have limited the use of MRI in preclinical OA research. We present an approach fo...
BACKGROUND Meniscal root tears cause menisci and their insertions to inadequately distribute loads and potentially leave underlying articular cartilage unprotected. Untreated meniscal root tears are becoming increasingly recognized to induce joint degradation; however, little information is known about anterior meniscal root tears and how they affect joint tissue. PURPOSE To observe the early...
Increased use of MRI in the quest to explain symptoms, and patients’ hope for a ‘quick-fix’, often challenge healthcare professionals in their choice of treatment for the painful ageing knee. In the USA, there are about one million knee arthroscopies per year and the majority involve removal of torn meniscal tissue in middleaged patients. The absolute number of arthroscopic partial meniscectomi...
Background: Arthroscopic partial meniscectomy (APM) combined with physical therapy (PT) have yielded pain relief similar to that provided by PT alone in randomized trials of subjects with a degenerative meniscal tear. However, many patients randomized to PT received APM before assessment of the primary outcome. We sought to identify factors associated with crossing over to APM and to compare pa...
