Meniscal injuries represent one of the most common orthopedic injuries. The most frequent
treatment is partial resection of the meniscus, or meniscectomy, which can affect joint …

The meniscus is a semilunar fibrocartilage between the tibia and femur that is essential for
the structural and functional integrity of the keen joint. In addition to pain and knee joint …

Meniscal injuries have poor intrinsic healing capability and are associated with the
development of osteoarthritis. Decellularized meniscus extracellular matrix (mECM) has …

We describe a general approach to produce bone and cartilaginous structures utilizing the
self-regenerative capacity of the intercostal rib space to treat a deformed …

Advancements in tissue engineering have taken aim at treating tissue types that have
difficulty healing naturally. In order to achieve improved healing conditions, the balance of …

Decellularized meniscus extracellular matrix (dmECM)‐based biological scaffolds in the
forms of sponge, hydrogel, nanofiber, and composite have gained increasing interest in …

Meniscal injuries caused by trauma, degeneration, osteoarthritis, or other diseases always
result in severe joint pain and motor dysfunction. Due to the unique anatomy of the human …

Knee menisci are structurally complex components that preserve appropriate biomechanics
of the knee. Meniscal tissue is susceptible to injury and cannot heal spontaneously from …

The meniscus is a key stabilizing tissue of the knee that facilitates proper tracking and
movement of the knee joint and absorbs stresses related to physical activity. This review …

The meniscus plays a critical role in knee mechanical function but is commonly injured given
its central load bearing role. In the adult, meniscus repair is limited, given the low number of …
