Morphological and ultrastructural analysis of normal, injured and osteoarthritic human knee menisci

Morphological and ultrastructural analysis of normal, injured and osteoarthritic human knee menisci

The human meniscus plays a crucial role for transmission and distribution of load across the knee, as well as shock absorption, joint stability, lubrication, and congruity. The aim of this study was to compare the complex geometry, and unique ultrastructure and tissue composition of the meniscus in...
