High resolution MRI evaluation of meniscal volume and anthropometric correlations.

The purpose of this study was to digitally determine meniscal volumes, and compare them with linear and surface area anthropometric measurements to evaluate these measurements for meniscal allograft sizing. Eighteen subjects (10 male and 8 female; mean age 37.5 years) underwent 3.

A review of ocular manifestations in intracranial hypotension.

Object: Intracranial hypotension (ICH) can present with a wide variety of visual symptoms and findings. Deficits in visual acuity and visual fields as well as ophthalmoplegia due to cranial nerve dysfunction have been frequently described. The aim of this review was to identify the most commonly reported ocular manifestations associated with ICH.

Avoiding allograft length mismatch during anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction: patient height as an indicator of appropriate graft length.

Background: Given the increasing use of allografts in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction, selection of appropriate-sized grafts may help individual surgeons as well as the efficiency of the overall system for graft distribution.

Hypothesis: Recipient patient height can predict the desired length for the tendinous portion of a patellar bone-tendon-bone allograft in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.

Study Design: Cohort study (Prognosis); Level of evidence, 2.
