  • Injury of articular cartilage can be classified into acute injury and chronic degenerative osteoarthritis Acute mechanical trauma on articular cartilage causes injuries that are divided into three distinct types based on the depth of injury: microdamage, chondral fracture, osteochondral fracture and each type has different potential of healing response and long-term prognosis. Articular cartilage undergoes degradation in response to a number of stimuli and eventually degenerative osteoarthritic changes will progress. The extent of initial injury to the articular cartilage is the most important factor affecting the long-term outcome of the healing response and other variables such as the size of lesion, site, age, activity level, obesity, limb alignment are also important factors. In this review, the pathophysiology that occurs within articular cartilage after different injuries and the effect of nonsurgical treatment mainly in physicochemical aspect and biological aspect will be discussed.

  • 연골 결손은 자체 치유 능력이 적어 그 크기가 1 cm 이상인 경우 골관절염이 발생할 수 있다. 최근에는 3-tesla MRI 등의 발전으로 인해 수술 전에 미리 연골 손상을 정확히 진단할 수 있어 연골 손상의 치료를 더욱 적극적으로 할 수 있다. 이제까지 연골 손상에 대한 수술적 치료는 세척술(lavage) 및 변연 절제술(debridement), 미세 천공술(microfracture), 자가 골연골 이식술(autologous osteochondral graft), 자가 연골 세포 이식술(autologous chondrocyte implantation, ACI), 동종 골연골 이식술(osteochondral allograft)이 있다.

  • Osteoarthritis is a disease characterized by the progression of articular cartilage erosion, that increases pain during joint motion and reduces the ability to withstand mechanical stress, which in turn limits joint mobility and function. Damage to articular cartilage due to trauma or degenerative injury is considered a major cause of arthritis. Numerous studies and attempts have been made to regenerate articular cartilage. In the case of partial degenerative cartilage changes, microfracture and autologous chondrocyte implantation have been proposed as surgical treatment methods, but they have disadvantages such as insufficient mutual binding to the host cells, inaccurate cell delivery, and deterioration of healthy cartilage. Stem cell-based therapies have been developed to compensate for this. This review summarizes the drawbacks and consequences of various cartilage regeneration methods and describes the various attempts to treat cartilage damage. In addition, this review will discuss cartilage regeneration, particularly mesenchymal stem cell engineering-based therapies, and explore how to treat future cartilage regeneration using mesenchymal stem cells.

  • Purpose : To introduce arthroscopic partial meniscectomy fur bucket handle tear of medial meniscus using posteromedial portal, which is superior to arthroscopic partial meniscectomy using standard anterior portals commonly used. Method : After arthroscopic examination of the knee, we reduce the torn meniscus, advance the arthroscope into posteromedial compartment under arthroscopic visualization, we make posteromedial portal with reexamination of the compartment and perform arthroscopic partial meniscectomy. Conclusion : With the technique of arthroscopic partial meniscectomy using standard anterior portals, accurate partial meniscectomy can not be done because of inadequate visual field, associated meniscal injuries of posterior horn and cartilage lesion of posterior aspect of the medial femoral condyle can be missed, commonly posterior cruciate ligament can be injured and artificial damage to weight bearing surface of medial femoral condyle is possible. An arthroscopic partial meniscectomy using posteromedial portal is an excellent method fur bucket handle tear of medial meniscus.

  • Purpose: The purpose of this study was to compare the preoperative magnetic resonance image (MRI) findings with postoperative arthroscopic findings on meniscus injury with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture. Materials and Methods: We reviewed MRI images and arthroscopic findings of 225 patients treated by ACL reconstruction due to rupture, from February 2001 to November 2010. There were 154 cases of meniscus tear in arthroscopic findings. We examined the sensitivity for detecting meniscal tears varied with the presence of a rupture of the ACL, with the location of the tear within the meniscus, and among configurations of meniscal tears. Results: In the presence of a rupture of the ACL, the sensitivity of MRI was 0.88 for medial meniscal tears and 0.69 for lateral meniscal tears. And sensitivity of MRI was lowest in posterior horn and peripheral portion tears in lateral meniscus injury accompanying ACL rupture, sensitivity was low in anterior horn and flap shape tears in medial meniscus injury accompanying ACL rupture. Conclusion: In Meniscus injury with ACL rupture, a special attention shoulder given to the posterior horn and peripheral portion injury in lateral meniscus during arthroscopic surgery due to difficulty in detecting on MRI.

  • Purpose: To identify the damage of the articular cartilage and analyze the clinical results of the partial medial meniscectomy. Materials and Methods: From January 2001 to December 2004, forty-eight patients in the degenerative arthritis and medial meniscal tear of knee who undertook arthroscopic partial meniscectomy and were able to keep pace with the times follow-up for more than 3 years were enrolled in this study. Six cases were men and 42 were women, and the mean age was 55.7 years (40~78 years). The patients were classified into two groups according to the Outerbridge grade. Grade I and II were classified into group 1 and grade III and IV into group 2. Group 1 included 30 cases and group 2 included 18 cases. The result were analyzed according to the Tapper & Hoover classification and Lysholm knee scoring scale. And we measured the distance of medial joint space in standing anteroposterior (AP) view of both sides at the pre-operative and the last follow-up. Results: According to the Tapper & Hoover classification, 28 cases were excellent, 7 cases good, 8 cases fair, and 5 cases poor. Among group 1, 25 cases were excellent, 2 cases good, 2 cases fair, 1 case poor. However, among group 2, 3 cases were excellent, 5 cases good, 6 cases fair, 4 cases poor. Average Lysholm knee score was improved from 62.4 preoperatively to 94 postoperatively in group 1, and from 58 preoperatively to 77.9 postoperatively in group 2. The joint space narrowing showed no statistically significant difference in both knees standing AP view. Conclusion: The arthroscopic partial meniscectomy for a patient with the degenerative articular cartilage was an effective treatment. However, we could not satisfy the results, in cases of Outerbridge grade III and IV. In grade III and IV, the partial meniscectomy was not aggravated the cartilage damage.

  • Purpose : To evaluate the results and usefulness of meniscal repair using meniscal arrows with ACL reconstruction. Material and Methods : Among cases of the simultaneous meniscal arrow fixation and ACL recontruction performed between May, 1997 and September, 2000, 17 cases could be evaluated. The average follow-up were 18.5 months. Twelve cases were medial meniscus, 5 cases, lateral meniscus. All cases were longitudinal tear. Meniscal tear were seen at red-red zone in 13 cases, red-white zone in 5 cases. The results were analyzed by pain, joint line tenderness, locking, McMurray test, the Marshall knee scoring scale and complications. Results : Postoperatively two patients had mild joint line tenderness without pain on joint motion or weight bearing. No patient had locking or positive McMurray test. At last follow-up, 15 cases $(88\%)$ were 'excellent' or 'good' according to the Marshall knee score scale. There were two complications which are soft tissue irritation sign on active knee motion and a femoral chondral injury due to protruded T-shaped head of meniscus arrow. Conclusion : Meniscus arrow can be one of the options in repairing the associated meniscus tear, especially the posterior horn of medial meniscus, during ACL reconstruction. However, surgeons using meniscus arrow should be aware of its potential complications such as pain due to soft tissue irritation and chondral damage of the femoral condyle.

  • 최근에 스포츠 손상이 증가하고 관절경을 이용한 치료가 발전하면서 조기에 더 적극적인 치료를 하는 추세이다. 또한 방사선 소견에 비하여 관절경하에서는 연골이 불안정하거나 분리되어 있는 경우도 있으므로 기존의 수술 적응증보다는 좀 더 광범위하게 관절경 검사 및 수술적 치료가 요구된다고 생각한다. 치료 방법을 하면 $1.5cm^2$ 이하의 병변을 가진 50세 이하의 환자는 관절경을 이용하여 변연 절제술, 연골하 천공, 연마, 미세 골절술, 소파술 등의 방법으로 치료할 수 있다. 같은 방법으로 50세 이상의 $3cm^2$ 이하의 병변을 가진 환자 중 mosaicplasty와 자가 연골 세포 이식술을 적용할 수 없는 환자에서 시도해볼 수 있다. $1.5\sim3cm^2$의 병변을 가진 50세 이하의 환자, 그전의 관절경적 치료로 실패한 경우에는 자가골 연골 이식 또는 자가 연골 세포 이식술을 이용하여 치료해야 한다. $3cm^2$ 이상의 병변을 가진 50세 이하의 환자는 자가 연골 세포 이식술이나 동종 골 연골 이식을 이용하여 치료하며, 50세 이상의 환자는 관절 고정술이나 족근 관절 인공치환술을 고려하는 것이 바람직하다.

  • Purpose: Tibial plateau fractures cause a variety of problems in the knee joint. The purpose of this study was to investigate the characteristics of the meniscus injuries in tibial plateau fracture arthroscopically. Materials and Methods: Thirty-three out of 39 consecutive patients diagnosed with tibial plateau fractures underwent arthroscopy between March 2007 and March 2010. According to Schatzker classification, there were 1 type I (3.3%), 19 type II (53.3%), 4 type III (13.3%), 2 type IV (6.6%), 2 type V (6.6%) and 5 type VI (20%) fracture patterns in 33 patients. Results: Twenty-five cases (75.8%) had lateral meniscus tears. There were 18 meniscal tears in 19 cases of Schatzker type II fractures (94.7%), 3 meniscal tears out of 4 cases of Schatzker type III fractures (75%) and 4 meniscal tears out of 5 cases of Schatzker type VI fractures (80%). The most commonly affected site (22/25) was the anterior horn of the lateral meniscus. Of the 25 documented meniscal tears, all but one were vertical longitudinal tear at meniscocapsular junction so most cases are amenable to arthroscopic repair. Conclusion: Arthroscopy for the meniscal injuries in tibial plateau fractures is a valuable diagnostic and treatment tool, we recommend arthroscopy in tibial plateau fracture.
