They are composed of water, collagen and elastin, and their texture is flexible and gelatinous.<\/p>\n<p>They act as pads and have a cushioning function. In addition, they absorb the impacts that occur between the articular surfaces, providing stability to the joint.<\/p>\n<h3>Types of meniscus<\/h3>\n<p>exist <strong>two types of meniscus<\/strong>. On the one hand, there is the <strong>internal or medial meniscus<\/strong>, which is located in the central part of the knee. It is divided into two horns: the anterior one, which joins the tibia in front of the anterior cruciate ligament, and the posterior horn, which joins in front of the posterior cruciate ligament.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, it differentiates <strong>external or lateral meniscus<\/strong> which is smaller and more mobile. It is also divided into two horns. However, in this case it is not attached to the knee ligament, which gives it greater mobility.<\/p>\n<h2>Function of the menisci<\/h2>\n<p>The menisci play an important role in the movement and mobility of the knee joint, improving joint function, that is, allowing the knee to perform basic movements, such as flexion or extension, and more complex movements. In addition, it distributes the loads, preventing overloading of the joint.<\/p>\n<p>Its main function is <strong>joint congruence<\/strong>, that is, it provides the appropriate shape for the tibia and femur to fit together and, in this way, allows sliding between the two bones, avoiding friction, which can cause pain. For this reason, in case of injuries, complete removal is avoided, since rubbing of the bones usually leads to degenerative osteoarthritis.<\/p>\n<h3>Main movements of the menisci<\/h3>\n<p>The menisci participate in practically all movements of the knee. In flexion and extension movements, they follow the movement of the tibia. In extension movements they move forward, and in flexion movements, backwards.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1596 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/elgeaditraumatologia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Rotura-de-menisco.jpg\" alt=\"meniscus tear\" width=\"900\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/elgeaditraumatologia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Rotura-de-menisco.jpg 900w, https:\/\/elgeaditraumatologia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Rotura-de-menisco-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>In rotational movements, the menisci follow the movement of the part of the femur with which they are in contact, known as the femoral condyles. In this way, in internal rotation movements, the external meniscus moves backwards, and the internal meniscus moves forwards. However, in external rotation movements, the opposite is true.<\/p>\n<h2>Most common injuries to the menisci<\/h2>\n<p>Meniscus injuries are known as <strong>meniscopathies<\/strong>, and, depending on the cause, three types of injuries can be differentiated: firstly, <strong>degenerative lesions<\/strong>, which are due to the wear and dehydration of the menisci over time. They are common in elderly people and it is normal for the meniscus to end up tearing, without the need to make sudden movements.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, there are the <strong>traumatic injuries<\/strong>In this case, the cause of the injury is sudden movements or trauma. And finally, mechanical injuries, which are related to small deformities or abnormalities in the knee, for example, excessive rotation or hyperextension.<\/p>\n<p>The<strong> meniscus injuries<\/strong>, usually cause pain that, at first, appears after exercising. In addition, it is usually accompanied by stiffness in the knee or immobility of the joint.<\/p>\n<h3>meniscus tear<\/h3>\n<p>The most common injury to the meniscus is what is known as <strong>meniscus tear<\/strong>. It is a common pathology in athletes and elderly people. In the case of young people, the injury is usually caused by trauma that causes the cartilage to tear, causing it to break.<\/p>\n<p>However, in elderly people, this injury is closely related to arthritis, which causes wear and tear of the cartilage and its subsequent breakage, without having to make a sudden movement.<\/p>\n<p>Normally, after tearing the meniscus, it is usually necessary for the patient to keep the joint at rest to reduce inflammation. If the pain persists and affects the mobility of the knee, it is common to perform surgery or resort to new knee replacement treatments.<strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/clinicaelgeadi.com\/tratamientos-celulas-madre\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">stem cells to avoid surgery<\/a><\/strong>, this method is carried out through the regeneration of joint cells.<\/p>\n<p>The <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/elgeaditraumatologia.com\/en\/knee-traumatologists-specializing-in-arthroscopy\/\">meniscus operation<\/a><\/strong> It is usually performed through arthroscopy, that is, through very small incisions, this is a minimally invasive surgery on the meniscus, an area belonging to the knee. Surgery can be performed in two ways: a partial meniscusopathy, in which part of the meniscus is removed or, in some cases, it is removed entirely. In other cases, it is preferred to perform a meniscal suture, in which the tear is sutured. This offers, in the long term, better results, since it reduces the chances of the patient developing osteoarthritis. After undergoing this knee operation, it will be necessary to go to a<strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/rekoveryclinic.com\/tratamientos-rehabilitacion-rodilla-en-madrid-clinica-de-fisioterapia\/\">physiotherapy and sports rehabilitation center<\/a> <\/strong>for the correct treatment of the affected area and shorten the injury recovery time.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1595 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/elgeaditraumatologia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Funci\u00f3n-de-los-meniscos.jpg\" alt=\"Function of the menisci\" width=\"900\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/elgeaditraumatologia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Funcio\u0301n-de-los-meniscos.jpg 900w, https:\/\/elgeaditraumatologia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Funcio\u0301n-de-los-meniscos-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Tips to avoid injuries to the meniscus<\/h2>\n<p>In many cases, meniscus injuries are inevitable, however, it is important to take into account certain guidelines that help prevent their appearance. In this way, first of all, it is important to strengthen the leg muscles, to avoid excessive pressure on the cartilage. However, it is advisable to avoid impact sports or sports practices that involve forced positions for the knee.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, it is recommended to maintain control over body weight, since the greater the weight, the knee will have to withstand more pressure.<\/p>\n<p><i>As has been seen, it is important to keep the knee joint in good condition to avoid the appearance of injuries that could keep the patient from practicing their daily activities.<\/i><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When we talk about menisci, we are referring to the cartilage that we can
