Meniscal Injury

The knee joint has 2 menisci - the medial (inside) and the lateral (outside).  In their normal healthy state these structures help to contribute functions of stability, load bearing and sharing, and joint surface (cartilage) protection.  They are resilient structures, made from tough type 1 collagen fibres, and are securely attached within the knee to both the tibial surface (front and back) and the knee joint capsule (the periphery of the knee joint).
