Ossicles of knee menisci. Report of seven cases
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research
|September 1, 1975
Abstract:
Seven cases of ossicles in the posterior horn of the medial meniscus revealed that: trauma is not necessarily an antecedent; some knees with ossicles are asymptomatic; some knees may be treated conservatively and without surgery; ossicles can be distinguished from loose bodies under fluoroscopic examination. Microscopically the ossicles are living bone. Although the etiology is not proven, perhaps merit should be given to the theory of a vestigial or sesamoid-like bone.
