While osteoclasts and osteoblasts are responsible for bone resorption and formation, respectively, activities of these cells are believed to be controlled by a mechanosensory system of osteocytes embedded in the extracellular bone matrix. Several experimental and theoretical studies have suggested that the strain-derived interstitial fluid flow in lacuno-canalicular porosity serves as the prime mover for bone remodeling. -

Meniscus Tear
291 North Fireweed Soldotna, AK 99669 907-262-6454 www.kenaipeninsulaortho.com ______________________________________________________________________________________ Orthopaedic Surgeon: Hand and Wrist Specialist: Henry G. Krull, M.D. Edwin D. Vyhmeister, M.D. Meniscus Tear The meniscus is the rubbery, soft cartilage cushion in the knee. There are two of the C-shaped cushions in each knee, a medial (inner) and lateral (outer) meniscus. They sit between the two bones that form the knee joint, and function to cushion and support the knee. The meniscus can tear with injury or degeneration, or a combination of both. The medial meniscus is torn about 10X more frequently than the lateral meniscus. In young people, the meniscus usually tears with an injury. In older people, the cartilage can degenerate (weaken) with age, and can tear with or without an injury; spontaneous tears can occur. Meniscal tears can occur in association with other injuries to the knee. Symptoms: Pain is the usual symptom of complaint with a meniscus tear. There is often a noticeable “pop.” Swelling and stiffness can also occur. Mechanical symptoms are common—clicking, popping, and locking. Sometimes there is just a feeling that something is wrong inside the knee. Pain can be sharp, or can be dull and aching. Meniscus tears do not heal, but sometimes the symptoms dissipate. Chronic, intermittent symptoms is very common. Meniscal tears can cause a feeling of instability, or can cause the knee to buckle or give way. Cause: Injuries, particularly with sports, are a common cause of meniscal tears in young people. As people age, the meniscus tissue weakens through the normal degenerative process, and tears can occur spontaneously, or with simple activities, such as getting up from a chair, and changing direction while walking. -
Meniscus Transplant
www.pinehurstsurgical.com Meniscus Problems - Meniscus Transplant A healthy meniscus acts as a shock absorber and provides a smooth surface for your knee to glide on. Behind the knee cap (patella), each knee has two menisci located between the thigh bone (femur) and shin bone (tibia), which protect articular cartilage from wear and tear. The somewhat C-shaped medial meniscus is on the inside of your knee, whereas the more U-shaped lateral meniscus is on the outside of your knee. This content is for informational purposes only.

Meniscus Transplant: Is Still a Step Forward for Good Results in Cartilage Lesion Progression and Knee Pain?
GENERAL ARTICLES Ref: Ro Med J. 2021;68(1) DOI: 10.37897/RMJ.2021.1.10 MENISCUS TRANSPLANT: IS STILL A STEP FORWARD FOR GOOD RESULTS IN CARTILAGE LESION PROGRESSION AND KNEE PAIN? Dan G. Cojocaru1, Gheorghe Bogdan Hogea1,2, Sorin Florescu1,2, Jenel Marian Patrascu Jr.1,2, Dragomir Halmagy1, Raymond Stoica1, Bogdan Anglitoiu1,2, Jenel Marian Patrascu1,2 1 Emergency County Hospital, Timisoara, Romania 2 “Victor Babes” University of Medicine and Pharmacy, Timisoara, Romania ABSTRACT Meniscus injuries are the most common traumatic conditions of the knee. If until the early 2000s, menisci were considered structures of no major importance in the knee joint, subsequent studies have shown their importance in the biomechanics of the knee. Their role is not only for the natural suspension of the joint, but also for the protection of the cartilage or the achievement of the efficient and uniform circulation of the syn- ovial fluid. Therefore, disruption of this joint balance can lead, in the absence of a well-conducted treatment, to premature knee wear. Most of the time, these meniscal tears are accompanied by associated lessions, ligaments or more severe- ly cartilaginous lessions, creating a real challenge for the physician, specially for young pacients. There are many conservative treatments of the damaged meniscus, imagined precisely in the idea of pre- serving the menisci as much as possible. However, this is not always possible, especially due to the type of traumatic injury.

Abstract: The aim of this study was to evaluate the biological activity, safety, and effectiveness of poly(lactic acid)–poly(glycolic acid)–poly(ethylene glycol)–calcium phosphate cement (PLGA- PEG-PLGA/CPC). Methods: The PLGA-PEG-PLGA/CPC composite bone cement was used for interaction with MC3T3-E1 mouse osteoblasts in vitro and its compatibility was tested using Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8). Alizarin Red staining and alkaline phosphatase activity were used to detect the osteogenic properties. Twenty healthy female New Zealand rabbits were selected to establish osteoporosis models, which were randomly divided into two groups. The experimental group was treated with 30 wt.% PLGA-PEG-PLGA/CPC, while the control group was treated with polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) bone cement. Imaging and histomorphology of the vertebral body were analyzed after 12 weeks. The distribution and degradation of bone cement were assessed using micro-computed tomography examination and hematoxylin–eosin (HE) staining. Results: In vitro, CCK-8 revealed significant proliferation of osteoblasts in the PLGA-PEG-PLGA/CPC composite bone cement. Alizarin Red staining showed that the degree of staining increased with time. -
Biomechanical Evaluation of a High Tibial Osteotomy with a Meniscal Transplant
ORIGINAL ARTICLE Biomechanical Evaluation of a High Tibial Osteotomy with a Meniscal Transplant Geoffrey S. Van Thiel, M.D., M.B.A.,1 Rachel M. Frank, B.S.,1 Aman Gupta, M.S.,3 Neil Ghodadra, M.D.,1 Elizabeth F. Shewman, M.S.,3 Vincent M. Wang, Ph.D.,2 Bernard R. Bach, M.D.,1 Nihkil N. Verma, M.D.,4 Brian J. Cole, M.D., M.B.A.,1 and Matthew T. Provencher, M.D., MC, USN1 ABSTRACT This study determines the biomechanical advantage and the optimal configuration of a high tibial osteotomy (HTO) and meniscus transplantation performed concurrently. Six cadaver knees were placed in a spatial frame, and an HTO was completed. Loading points between a mechanical 6 degrees of varus and 8 degrees of valgus were loaded to 800 N for medial meniscal intact, meniscectomized, and transplanted states. Posterior slope was also increased by 3 degrees in these specimens. Contact data was recorded. Peak pressures significantly increased in the meniscectomized state in every degree of varus/valgus (p < 0.05). For both peak and total medial compartment pressures, there was a significant drop (p < 0.001) between neutral and 3 degrees of valgus. Lateral compartment pressures linearly increased from varus to valgus orientation. There was no significant change in the pressure profile of the knee with a 3-degree increase in posterior slope. This biomechanical study confirms the hypothesis that an HTO improves the peak pressures in the medial compartment at all degrees of varus/valgus alignment in the setting of meniscal trans- plantation. Furthermore, the largest decrease in medial pressures was between neutral and 3 degrees of valgus, suggesting that perhaps neutral aligned knees could benefit from an HTO. -

Cartilage Development and Maturation In Vitro and In Vivo Johnathan Ng Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences Columbia University 2017 © 2017 Johnathan Ng All rights reserved Abstract Cartilage Development and Maturation In Vitro and In Vivo Johnathan Ng The articular cartilage has a limited capacity to regenerate. Cartilage lesions often result in degeneration, leading to osteoarthritis. Current treatments are mostly palliative and reparative, and fail to restore cartilage function in the long term due to the replacement of hyaline cartilage with fibrocartilage. Although a stem-cell based approach towards regenerating the articular cartilage is attractive, cartilage generated from human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) often lack the function, organization and stability of the native cartilage. Thus, there is a need to develop effective methods to engineer physiologic cartilage tissues from hMSCs in vitro and assess their outcomes in vivo. This dissertation focused on three coordinated aims: establish a simple in vivo model for studying the maturation of osteochondral tissues by showing that subcutaneous implantation in a mouse recapitulates native endochondral ossification (Aim 1), (ii) develop a robust method for engineering physiologic cartilage discs from self-assembling hMSCs (Aim 2), and (iii) improve the organization and stability of cartilage discs by implementing spatiotemporal control during induction in vitro (Aim 3). First, the usefulness of subcutaneous implantation in mice for studying the development and maintenance of osteochondral tissues in vivo was determined. By studying juvenile bovine osteochondral tissues, similarities in the profiles of endochondral ossification between the native and ectopic processes were observed.
