Testing Hypoxia in Pig Meniscal Culture: Biological Role of the Vascular-Related Factors in the Differentiation and Viability of Neonatal Meniscus
Menisci play an essential role in shock absorption, joint stability, load resistance and its transmission thanks to their conformation. Adult menisci can be divided in three zones based on the vascularization: an avascular inner zone with no blood supply, a fully vascularized outer zone, and an inte...
