A 64-year-old man presented with intermittent but progressive lateral-sided knee pain. Symptoms mimicked those of a lateral meniscal tear. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed a cyamella associated with popliteal tendonitis and an intact lateral meniscus.

Arthroscopic treatment of calcific tendinitis of the popliteal tendon: A case report.
Int J Surg Case Rep
December 2024
Department of Sports Medicine, Yueyang Hospital Affiliated to Hunan Normal University, Yueyang, Hunan Province, China. Electronic address:
Introduction And Importance: Calcific tendinitis occurring in the popliteal tendon is extremely rare and has rarely been reported in the past. This case describes a patient who underwent arthroscopic surgery to remove the calcification of the popliteal tendon and achieved satisfactory results after surgery, providing valuable evidence for the feasibility of arthroscopic treatment of calcific tendinitis of the popliteal tendon.
Case Presentation: The patient was a 55-year-old female who was admitted to the hospital due to right knee pain and limited mobility.

Introduction: The posteromedial compartment of the knee houses several important anatomical structures, including the oblique popliteal ligament (OPL), an accessory insertion tendon of the semimembranosus muscle. Popliteal cysts develop from the synovial bursa located between the medial gastrocnemius and the semimembranosus, typically secondary to intra-articular pathologies causing effusion. This study aimed to describe the normal anatomy of the postero-medial capsule of the knee and its anatomical variations, particularly in the presence of popliteal cysts.

Background: Popliteal pterygium syndrome (PPS) is a rare congenital disorder characterized by orofacial, cutaneous, musculoskeletal, and genital anomalies. Surgical interventions are necessary to address the severe knee flexion contracture and equinovarus deformity, but there are no established treatment guidelines.
Methods: We present the case of a one-year-old patient with PPS and discuss the challenges in managing the knee deformity.
A Novel Description of Medial Meniscus Vascularization: A Multicenter Study Introducing the "Medial Meniscal Artery".
Am J Sports Med
December 2024
Division of Sports Medicine, Midwest Orthopaedics at Rush, Chicago, Illinois, USA.
Background: The microvasculature of the human meniscus has been previously described by Arnoczky and Warren. However, to date, the qualitative and quantitative extra-articular vascular anatomy of the medial meniscus has not been characterized.
Purposes: To perform a qualitative and quantitative anatomic study of the extra-articular medial meniscal vasculature and to introduce the novel "medial meniscal artery" (MMA), potentially providing future guidelines for the treatment of meniscal abnormalities.

Introduction: Injuries to the posterolateral compartment (PLC) of the knee require special attention, as incorrect diagnosis and treatment may lead to considerable morbidity. However, no gold standard treatment has been established for PLC injuries.
Methods: 38 patients with concomitant (posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) and PLC injuries were divided into two groups according to surgical treatment of the proximal popliteal tendon injury.
