21 wrz 2024 · Gross anatomy. There are two fibrocartilaginous menisci in the knee joint: a medial meniscus within the medial tibiofemoral compartment and a lateral meniscus within the lateral tibiofemoral compartment. Each meniscus is C-shaped in the transverse plane and consists of the following parts (from anterior to posterior):
This review contains a concise, detailed description of the knee menisci—including anatomy, etymology, phylogeny, ultrastructure and biochemistry, vascular anatomy and neuroanatomy, biomechanical function, maturation and aging, and imaging modalities.
Anatomy of the knee on a coronal slice (MRI) : meniscus (lateral and medial), cruciate ligaments, vastus (lateralis, intermedius, medialis), tibial and fibular collateral ligaments. On “Contrast” the user can choose the type of MRI sequence: spin-echo T1 or proton-density with fat saturation sequences.

30 paź 2023 · Medial meniscus. Sagittal view of the knee joint showing the patellofemoral and tibiofemoral joints. The medial meniscus is a crescentic, almost semi-circular shaped fibrocartilage disc found on the tibial plateau within the knee joint.
1 paź 2011 · This review will cover current knowledge regarding anatomical and biochemical characteristics of the knee meniscus, and discuss the tissue’s biomechanical and functional properties. The review will also address the causal pathologies precipitating the need for meniscus treatment, and the effectiveness of current tissue repair methods, among ...
3 lis 2023 · The knee joint is a hinge type synovial joint, which mainly allows for flexion and extension (and a small degree of medial and lateral rotation). It is formed by articulations between the patella, femur and tibia. In this article, we shall examine the anatomy of the knee joint – its articulating surfaces, ligaments and neurovascular supply.
