Thoroughly discussing the varied elements of meniscal damage and
repair, Meniscal Injuries: Management and Surgical Techniques
includes the insights and expertise of over 20 leading surgeons and
researchers on topics ranging from meniscal anatomy, physical
examination, innovative resection and repair techniques, gene
therapy, and tissue regeneration. This treatise offers wisdom aimed
at assessing true surgical candidates, exploring the intricacies of
meniscal composition and function, an overview of meniscal
scaffolds and replacements, and patient examination pearls. Also
discussed in depth is cutting edge research concerning meniscal
repair enhancement, nanofiber technology as a means of meniscal
replacement, and biologic agents directed toward chondral
protection. All the science presented will direct the sports
medicine practitioner to state-of-the-art treatment aimed at knee
preservation. Meniscal repair and regeneration is a rapidly
evolving science - early attempts at meniscal restoration or repair
resulted in short-term gains which often sacrificed long-term joint
integrity. Now, the practitioner is afforded numerous means of
retaining or restoring meniscal tissue. Breakthroughs in scaffold
and allograft replacement, as featured herein, offer the promise of
articular cartilage preservation like never before. In addition,
tissue regeneration and gene therapy techniques, featured
throughout, offer a glimpse into emerging technologies aimed at
preserving or replacing meniscal tissue in previously considered
"hopeless" cases. As such, Meniscal Injuries will be an
indispensible resource to orthopedic surgeons and sports medicine
practitioners interested in providing the absolute most
contemporary and evidence-based care to their patients.
