A review of strategies for development of tissue engineered meniscal implants
2021, Biomaterials and BiosystemsCitation Excerpt :Dienst et al. concluded that a size difference of ±10% of the original meniscus size should yield acceptable results and that it is better to choose an allograft that is slightly too large rather than too small [106]. In addition to size matching, secure fixation of both the anterior and posterior horn of the allograft is critical to ensure that mechanical properties remain close to normal. [107, 108]. Allografts are frequently transplanted with bone plugs for medial meniscal allografts or bone bridges for lateral allografts harvested from a cadaveric donor [109-111].

2019, Arthroscopy - Journal of Arthroscopic and Related SurgeryCitation Excerpt :MAT can be achieved by transosseous fixation, soft-tissue sutures, bone plugs, or a bone bridge. Cadaveric studies reported a clear advantage of bone block fixation over soft-tissue fixation and transosseous fixation in terms of load transmission.34,35 Abat et al.19 compared meniscal extrusion after MAT with soft tissue–only fixation (33 cases) versus a bone plug technique (55 cases).
