Objective: To evaluate results of 1310 knees of meniscal treatments by arthroscopy and to present good method of meniscal treatment.
Methods: Their age, traumatic mechanism and effects under arthroscopy were analysed in a series of 254 patients with meniscal injuries, there were 880 males and 374 females, the average of the patients was 25.5 years. The meniscal repair in 68 knee, partial meniscectomy in 756 knee, total meniscectomy in 480 knee and conservative treatment in 6 cases.
Results: The patients were followed up 1 to 12 years with the average of 4 years and 3 months. The mean Lysholm score was 86.3 points in arthroscopic meniscal repair, 84.0 points in partial meniscectomy and 76.1 points in total meniscectomy. The mean Lysholm 98.7 points in all children patients with conservative treatment. They showed significant difference (P < 0.01) in the results of three treatments.
Conclusions: Meniscal injuries should not cut off as it, should be repaired in 5 mm from meniscus to synovium and or partial meniscectomy. The general adoption is not the surgical operation on meniscal injuries of the child.

Anterior Cruciate Ligament Mechanical Response to Load in the Setting of Changes to the Medial Meniscus.

Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, University of Illinois at Chicago, Chicago, IL 60612-7342, USA.
The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is a major ligament in the knee joint, and its function is crucial for both the movement and stability of the knee. Our research takes a novel approach by investigating the effect of meniscus tears on the ACL, how such tears will impact the stress on the ACL, and its overall compensation in response to the changes in the meniscus. : This study aims to investigate how the ACL compensates for the change in knee joint stability and contact pressures due to partial horizontal cleavage tears (HCTs) in the meniscus, such as partial meniscectomy and partial transplantation on knee joint stability and contact pressures.

GRP78/BiP, a stress-induced protein and autoantigen in rheumatoid arthritis (RA), exhibits different expressions in various biological fluids and tissues, including blood, synovial fluid (SF), and synovium, all of which are pertinent to the disease activity and progression of RA; however, there is a scarcity of data linking both intracellular and extracellular GRP78/Bip to disease activity and progression of RA. This study was undertaken to investigate the differential expression of GRP78/Bip in blood, SF, and synovium, and to determine their association with disease activity and progression of RA. Patients with RA, osteoarthritis (OA), and traumatic meniscal injury (TMI) without radiographic OA were consecutively recruited for the study.

PubMed and Medline databases were searched in October 2023 for studies reporting outcomes of arthroscopic anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction and stable medial meniscal ramp lesion treatment. Studies focused on diagnostic approaches, biomechanical properties, unstable ramp lesions, isolated ramp lesions, and concomitant intraarticular/extraarticular pathologies other than ACL rupture are excluded.

Background: There has been an increased interest in meniscus preservation over the last decade. Several risk factors for the failure of meniscal repair have been identified. However, the timing of meniscal repair has not been extensively assessed in the literature, and there is currently no high-quality evidence on the optimal timing of performing meniscal repair after an injury with regard to outcomes.

Background: Asymmetric landing kinetics 6 months after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) are associated with higher risk of second anterior cruciate ligament injury. Little is known about landing kinetics after ACLR with an all-soft tissue quadriceps tendon (QT) autograft despite its increasingly common use in young, active patients.
Purpose/hypothesis: The purpose of this study was to compare landing kinetics during a bilateral drop vertical jump (DVJ) 6 months after ACLR in participants who had undergone primary ACLR with a QT or bone-patellar tendon-bone (BTB) autograft.
