Abstract: Purpose Contralateral medial meniscus posterior root tear (MMPRT) can sometimes occur after primary surgeries for MMPRT and lead to unsatisfactory outcomes. The incidence rate and risk factors for contralateral MMPRT have not been well investigated,… read more here.

Abstract: Although voluntary muscle contraction modulates spinal reflex excitability of contracted muscles and other muscles located at other segments within a limb (i.e., intra-limb modulation), to what extent corticospinal pathways are involved in intra-limb modulation of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.clinimag.2021.02.029
Abstract: Medial meniscus posterior root tears (MMPRT) can lead to meniscal extrusion, loss of hoop tension, loss of load-sharing ability and increased contact pressure. Currently, the most commonly used technique for root repair is arthroscopic transtibial… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.eats.2017.05.014
Abstract: The meniscus roots are critical for meniscus function in preserving correct knee kinematics and avoiding meniscus extrusion and, consequently, in the progression of osteoarthritis. Several techniques exist for medial meniscus posterior root tear repair; however,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.eats.2017.07.018
Abstract: The occurrence of posterior root tear of both the lateral and medial menisci, combined with anterior cruciate ligament rupture, is rare. Problems may be encountered such as the difficulty to access the medial meniscal root… read more here.
