This article discusses an interesting and unusual complication of unicondylar knee arthroplasty, in which a retained meniscus resulted in a bucket-handle tear with symptoms that responded well to arthroscopic meniscectomy.

Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Chungnam National University Hospital, School of Medicine, Chungnam National University, Munhwa-ro 282, Jung-gu, Daejeon 35015, Republic of Korea.
: This study investigated associated meniscus and ligament injuries in tibial plateau fractures using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and assessed soft tissue injuries in relation to the Schatzker classification and Tscherne classification. : The data of 185 patients who sustained tibial plateau fractures from January 2010 to April 2021 were retrospectively reviewed. Fractures were classified according to the Schatzker classification system.

Purpose: Medial meniscus ramp lesions (MMRLs), lateral meniscus posterior root tears (LMPRTs), and anterolateral complex injuries (ALCIs) are major secondary stabiliser injuries associated with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries. This study aimed to investigate the effect of the number of secondary stabiliser injuries on knee instability in ACL injuries.
Methods: Patients who underwent primary ACL reconstruction between January 2017 and May 2023 were enroled in this study.

Objective: To investigate the application value of arthroscopic channel modification in meniscal injury repair.
Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the data of 100 patients with meniscus injuries treated with knee arthroscopy from December 2022 to December 2023 and divided them into a control group and a modified group according to the application of "arthroscopic access modification technology". We compared the operation time, postoperative hospitalization time, VAS score, Lysholm knee function score, postoperative complications, and postoperative images of the patients in these two groups.
Medial Meniscus Ramp Tears: State of the Art.

Twin Cities Orthopedics, Edina, Minnesota, USA. Electronic address:
Medial meniscus ramp tears are tears of the posteromedial capsule or peripheral rim of the posteromedial meniscus that frequently occur with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tears. The incidence and prevalence of medial meniscus ramp tears has been increasing in the recent literature due to the increased understanding of the anatomy and diagnosis of these tears. When a patient presents with an ACL tear, a medial meniscus ramp tear should be suspected if the patient has a grade 3+ Lachman or pivot shift exam, a vertical line of increased signal intensity in the posterior capsule or peripheral meniscus on magnetic resonance imagining (MRI), or posteromedial tibial plateau bone bruising on MRI.

Background: Meniscal allograft transplantation (MAT) is indicated in the setting of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction to restore proper arthrokinematics and load distribution for the meniscus-deficient knee. Objective outcomes after ACL reconstruction with concomitant MAT in athletic populations are scarcely reported and highly variable.
Purpose: To compare patient outcomes using an objective functional performance battery, self-reported outcome measures, and return-to-sport rates between individuals undergoing ACL reconstruction with concomitant MAT and a matched group undergoing isolated ACL reconstruction.
