Objective: This study is aimed to examine the correlation between the transitions in the muscular strength pre and post arthroscopic meniscus suture surgery.
Methods: A total of 87 patients records were collected from the electronic medical records of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from 2020 to 2021. Patients in the operative group underwent arthroscopic meniscus sutures. The isokinetic muscular strength test system (ISOMED2000) tool was utilized to examine the isokinetic intensity of the knee joins on both sides and the balance was marked and adjusted to the training methods before the test. The HSS score was used to assess the transitions in the knee activity.
Results: There was a significant variation in the extensor muscle strength found on the affected portion where F value was observed at 3747.845 (P < .01). The extensor knee joint strength of the affected side was less than the healthy side when compared with pre-operation, one month, three months, and six months post-surgery where F values were found to be 5287.41, 5510.517, and 1947.91 respectively (P < .001). After six months of the surgery, there was an improvement in the isokinetic muscular strength of patients, where the measurement of the damaged side and the healthier side was observed as 89.11 ± 6.78 and 93.45 ± 5.59, respectively.
Conclusion: Arthroscopic meniscus suture surgery is observed to have a superior influence on the treatments. After 6 months of surgery, the muscular force of the knee extensor on the affected joint portion enhanced remarkably in contrast to the other durations.

Osteochondritis dissecans is a rare condition characterized by the deterioration of a small area of bone and cartilage without infection. Its exact cause is unclear, though factors such as abnormal bone development, joint pressure, repetitive injuries, inadequate blood supply, and genetic links have been observed. In this case, a 27-year-old woman experienced chronic right knee pain following a twisting injury, which led to reduced mobility and mild pain.

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.
J ISAKOS

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.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFBackground: The co-occurrence of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture with medial collateral ligament (MCL) rupture is a compound injury that can be associated with meniscal tears.
Purpose: To report the characteristics of meniscal tears in knees with isolated ACL versus combined ACL and MCL injuries, analyzing their frequency, distribution by site, and lesion type.
Study Design: Cross-sectional study; Level of evidence, 3.

Article Synopsis
- Popliteal artery injury is a rare but significant complication of knee arthroscopic surgery, highlighting a need for more research due to a lack of data and guidelines.
- The study analyzed 17,000 procedures and found a 0.059% incidence of popliteal artery injury among 10 patients, detailing the types of surgeries performed and various treatment methods used.
- After an average follow-up of over 43 months, patients showed no reported complications and exhibited positive recovery in joint function and vascular health.
